    Summary

    “Nice club,” Wriothesley said as he slid onto the bar stool beside him, leaning one elbow on the counter. “I like the energy of the place.”

    Slowly, the man’s gaze slid over to take him in, and as he turned, Wriothesley could see that Monsieur Neuvillette’s eyes were a striking lilac color, the pupils slit and white. Wriothesley did his honest best not to fidget or let his scent shift too much to one of sudden desire-tinged-anxiety as Neuvillette closed his book.

    He was wearing gloves. Black leather gloves.

    Summary

    A storm shrouds Jing Yuan’s shoulders. He smells like wind and lightning, like rain on a sunny day, like dark soil and the life that blooms from it. He smells like… like the Luofu, that very first time Dan Heng stepped into the sunlight, that very first time he beheld the world with his own eyes.

    Saliva fills his mouth. His stomach churns now as it did back then, trepidation warring with a longing so sudden and fierce that Dan Heng can’t think of anything else. This feeling—it can’t be anything else.

    But then Jing Yuan says, “It’s been a long time, old friend”—and the candlelight in Dan Heng’s chest hisses out.

    Jing Yuan and Dan Feng weren't soulmates.

    Jing Yuan and Dan Heng are.

    Summary

    Zhongli remembered every moment of his life. He would for the rest of time, a blessing and a curse. He remembered the moment he met a mysterious young man on the docks of Liyue harbor, spilling sweet words like tea, purchasing precious artifacts for him and then flitting out of his life. He remembered when he found out that young man was Tartaglia, Eleventh of the Fatui Harbingers.

    He remembered when he broke Childe's heart.

    So when a near death Childe stumbles his way through the streets of Liyue, Zhongli does the only thing he can think to atone for his mistakes.

     

    Childe manages to escape the Abyss for a second time, finding himself on the streets of a city he longed for almost as much as home. He can feel the life escaping him and he knows his mind has been failing him. His memories are broken and scattered, the only thing clear that all he needs to move forward is the pain in his heart and the rage that comes from it.

    Still as he feels life escaping him, he sees memories of a god that betrayed him. A god he would give anything to see one last time, to drink wine with, to hold once more.

    And then he wakes up, light and free of the Abyss.

    Summary

    A week before Ajax turns 23, he almost floods a country.

    Almost is the key word there, but he doesn't think anyone cares for him pointing it out.

    Injured, seething, and heartbroken, Ajax can’t even lick his wounds in solitude — there’s still work to be done, bridges to mend. With opportunists at every corner, he can trust no one but himself, no matter what his heart begs him to consider.

    Summary

    “My Eleventh.” Her tone softened. “You understand, then, what I am asking of you? This operation will not be easy, nor will it be quick.“

    All too well, as Tartaglia had never been known as one to accept the easiest option, anyway.

    “I understand, Your Majesty. Your will is mine.”

    ~

    After a career-ending injury, Tartaglia, the Eleventh Harbinger, is sent to Liyue under the guise of a new concubine within the Imperial Harem to investigate the rumors of an assassination plot against the Emperor. Fighting off assassins, he could do, but pretending to be a concubine? Not so much.

    Summary

    Sunday and Aventurine are business partners preparing for the opening of a new luxury resort, The Golden Hours. The location had been selected, construction has finished, and final preparations are being completed in anticipation of the grand opening. But Aventurine suggests they find some more… exclusive entertainment for the sort of clientele they plan to cater to. Surely the rich and famous would be willing to pay anything for some high-end arm candy, and they are willing to provide exactly that.

    And what better way to find the sort of talent they need than by dragging Sunday to a strip club?

    Summary

    Due to various reasons, Childe joined Zhongli's film crew.

    Their relationship was quite bad at first, but after going through many things together, it gradually improved.
    This fanfic may contain elements of a story within a story (i.e. there are descriptions of the scenes from the movie they are acting in).

    Pairing: Childe(Top) x Zhongli(Bottom), strictly no reverse...

    Translated from my Tartali fanfic 《影帝和至冬爱豆是在麦麸营业吗?》(originally written in Chinese) with some help from machine translation.
    I'll try to update on a daily basis.
    Feel free to let me know in the comment if there is any wrong/weird/inappropriate translation ^^

    The book has now been published^^

    Summary

    Zhongli has spent his life building up the Liyue Association for the Protection of Indigenous Species (or LAPIS for short), a centre aimed at rescuing and conserving various species of Teyvat's wildlife.

    When an injured mer called Childe is brought to the sanctuary after being confiscated from a collector, Zhongli finds himself in a race against time to earn Childe's trust and figure out what is ailing him before Childe succumbs to his injuries.

    Slowly, Zhongli reaches up and presses his palm to the glass.

    Childe does not flinch, bolt, nor flee. Instead, he raises his hand, close enough now that the translucent silver-grey half-webbing between his fingers becomes visible, the small stretch of skin that reaches between the first joint of each finger, while leaving his thumb free for object manipulation, an adaptation providing the mer both the propulsion power of a marine species, along with the dexterity of a human. He touches his index finger to the glass at the same spot as Zhongli’s, and there they stand, human and mer, a connection as rare and precious as gold dust.

    Summary

    “Look at me, child,” the Tsaritsa murmurs, and runs her fingers down Tartaglia’s cheek. He meets her silver eyes and feels lighter somehow. “Would you travel to Liyue for me? Answer.”

    “Yes. Anywhere,” he answers.

    “Would you claim Morax’s gnosis for me? Would you slay him if need be? Answer.”

    “Yes,” he breathes, giddy at the prospect.

    She grips his face, fingers like rusty nails.

    “I have sent a proposal of your hand in marriage to Morax’s court. It has already been accepted. You sail for Liyue in one week. The beast will wed the beast, creep in close, and wait to strike. Do you understand? Answer.”

    “Of course, my queen,” he hears his voice say, but his mind says, What?

    ~

    Tartaglia is wed to the Sunset Emperor of Liyue.

    Summary

    Just before Childe awakes, he is greeted by a dream, one of him waking up to the smell of fragrant tea pheromones wafting from the beautiful omega laying naked in his arms.

    But when he opens his eyes, it is to a cold, empty bed, the omega beside him last night long gone, leaving only the stale scent of lingering tea pheromones.
    ---

    After the omega he'd bonded with disappears after spending a night together, Childe is determined to hunt him down, even if that means he’ll have to track him to the ends of Tevyet.

    Summary

    “You are special, my child. You are loyal, and you will find as much love in the world as you give to me," the Tsaritsa had said all those years ago, voice soft and light as she had continued to stroke his hair gently. "Do not disappoint me."

    Teyvat had once produced two renowned generals from different nations, who rose to prominence fighting side by side against the Abyssal Order. General Tartaglia of the Fatui Harbinger’s and his closest companion and comrade, General Rex Lapis of Liyue. Rex Lapis was beloved by his soldiers and his people for his long row of victories for his country, that is, until he shocked the alliance and his home by turning traitor to abandon his post.

    Years later, although the war wages on, only one General fights along the Northern Frontier. When an amnesiac Rex Lapis is brought back to Liyue, both the public and General Tartaglia call for vengeance.

    Is Zhongli’s return a signal to the end of the war? Or is there something more at play? Childe won’t stop until he’s found the truth, even if it ends up tearing him to pieces.

    Click, clack, click, clack

     

    Childe’s fingers frantically press against the gaming controller, his bruised lips trapped between his teeth as he tries to clear the boss on the final floor for the 5th time this evening. He has to win, he has to, the thought of a challenge firing him up.

    So when he leans back against the couch, when his shoulders make contact with warmth instead of the worn out pillows they found at a yard sale, when it’s Zhongli’s body he presses into, Childe freezes, completely, holding his breath for a second too long while the screen reads defeat.

    Summary

    Final year university student Ajax dreads graduating. A lifetime of sitting in a shitty office at a shitty computer, making shitty cups of tea for his shitty coworkers is his last idea of fun. But when he (quite literally) runs into the mysterious, handsome Zhongli who—lucky him—agrees to a date, he’s gifted a Vision—an ancient artifact of power from an era long since passed.

    With the Vision in his possession, he begins to recover memories of a past life of exhilarating battles and heroic deeds, propelling him into a lifestyle of delivering justice to Snezhnaya’s streets, slamming down would-be criminals with a well-placed fist to the face.

    However, when these memories begin to take a darker turn, Ajax starts to question who he really was, and what these memories mean for who he is today.

    Summary

    Childe slips his hand into Zhongli’s and tugs him toward the steps leading down to the harbourfront. Zhongli stumbles, grumbling, “Ajax!” under his breath, but when Childe pauses to look back, the corner of Zhongli’s eyes are crinkled and the lantern-light catches off his golden irises like flame.

    His eyes can hide no secrets any longer.

    Zhongli loves this.

    And so does Childe.

    In an effort to keep up with Zhongli's inhuman stamina in the bedroom, Childe turns to unconventional means to extend his own.

    It works—but at a cost. With his health deteriorating, Childe attempts to fight on as he attempts to conceal his condition from Zhongli, but as it becomes more and more difficult to maintain his façade, a slip up during a routine mission threatens to bring his efforts crashing down around him.

    Summary

    Guizhong has once told him that she thinks he'll give it to someone he loves. To someone that would care for him. To someone that would give him the world and not take it from him. To someone that would give him everything he would ever ask for just as how those doctors took it from him.

    He thought it was ridiculous. He thought it would never happen, with the life he had. He never once thought he would find love. Platonic or romantic. That he would never find it because he's undeserving and who would dare love someone like him? Who's been touched and been so... ruined for everything?

    That carried on even when he's left whatever that hellhole was. When he entered the arena and further destroyed whatever remains he had. No one would love him. No one would look at him and think that they've found their person.

    Until he met Childe.
