Summary
“Do you kill the man who has intentionally murdered one person or the man who has accidentally killed five thousand?”
“The one who has murdered five thousand. It’s an easy question.”
The look on Childe’s conversation partner’s face screams that this is, in fact, not supposed to be an easy question.
An amnesic Childe is recruited by Rex Lapis to judge a different pair of criminals each day and decide their fates. The catch? One criminal will always be sent to their death and the other will be sent to the outside world scot-free. This is unchangeable.
It's an easy enough job.
So what happens when the cases become greyer in morality with each day and memories that include Rex Lapis begin to come back to Childe? And why is it that the faint inkling he has that Rex Lapis is fully aware of how Childe's memory disappeared is becoming less and less faint?

Summary
Childe like to drown his feeling. Literally.
After Osial, he frequently goes to lakes, usually Luhua Pool. Making sure no one is around before stepping into the water. He'll float a bit before taking a deep breath and let himself sink.
Before, back in the abyss, inside the water is where he feels most safe, apart from his Master's side.
But here in Liyue, there’s no Master.
It aches something terrible in Ajax's chest, because Liyue used to be warm. It almost feels like home.
But no more.
So he returns to the water, where it feels more safe, much like a creature of the depth he truly is inside.
When he emerges, everything will be muffled either from lack of oxygen or the after-effect of the underwater silence. There'll be dizziness, but it is worth it for the few moments in which he becomes one with hydro. Free from thoughts of his mission, about Zhongli, about Liyue.
But of course, nothing lasts. Not for him. Ajax is never that lucky.
One of Zhongli's Adepti saw him.
[In which a series of misunderstandings and well-meaning friends hilariously push Zhongli and Childe to finally do their overly waited reunion.]

Summary
“Arrogant prick.” Childe said, inches away from his face. He hated that Zhongli was just a few inches taller than him.
“Insufferable brat.” Zhongli responded.
“I should kill you.”
“You can try.”
And then their lips were on each other, ruthless in their meeting, teeth and tongues clashing in a kiss that was a battle in its own right, a clash of epic proportions.
Or: TFW you have hate sex with the love of your life because you're both stupid and stubborn

Summary
you can’t just simply accept a beast’s invitation and think you’ll come out unscathed.
Childe is dressing himself up after another hot night on Capitano's bed, when said older male blatantly remarks,“I have the sudden desire to break your hips.”
What can he do? Say no?
(In his defense, having a lover as hot and as strong as Capitano tends to leave your lust on overdrive.)Bookmarked by Gmd

Decent summary: Childe knows the key of training the dog into the loyal hound, that is the balance of rewards and punishment.

Summary
TEMPORARY HIATUS
Foul Legacy’s ugly, clamorous whispers rose sharply in his head. They prodded and tested his most volatile emotions. Fury, shame, self-hatred, his eagerness to destroy, to fight, to kill -
His best laid plans were a complete and utter failure. The Tsaritsa’s assignment had been poached out from under him, and his ineptitude allowed it. He had failed to find the god who hid right under his nose.
Liyue was supposed to be a straightforward mission, but had been played a fool by everyone; even himself.
He let himself get attached. To Liyue. To the pretty funeral consultant who told him about the world and now pulled it out from under his feet.
Perhaps it wasn’t Liyue he desired; maybe it was a man who never existed. A god who never really cared.
The whispers touched on something new, something tender, something more easily provoked: heartbreak; betrayal. They grasped, and they tugged, and something snapped.

Summary
A dragon is an extremely greedy creature; it requires endless offerings of time, attention, and beauty - especially from its current obsession. And Childe provides all that even unconsciously amongst dashes of mischievousness and cheery goading to encourage more and more of Zhongli’s instincts to come out and play.
Come play with a human that is not weak.

Summary
“It’s a measure of one’s self, Mr Zhongli.” Childe says. “Maybe you don’t understand it since you work as a consultant, but as an ambassador from the Tsaritsa, as one who fights in her name— this is how I learn to know the measure of myself.”“I understand,” Zhongli says thoughtfully. “It is a warrior’s way, to test one’s strength against the incomparable. To find where one falls short. To find where one has risen to the challenge.”
In which Childe has insomnia, vandalizes public property and runs into a mysterious funeral consultant on his first night in Liyue.Mandarin translation by Echloess ♥

Summary
The abyss was black, snow was white, and battle was red. Tartaglia, “Childe,” quite liked them that way, and he quite liked when they all mixed together. In fact, nothing was better. He took every step in life desperate to swallow the whole world in those colors.
Zhongli, on the other hand, preferred the calm, endless blue of the sea. It was unfortunate that taming the ocean was a futile endeavor. Even so, he always found that he did his best soul-searching while near the water.
--
Post-1.1, Zhongli and Childe navigate their relationship set back into motion after a single battle.
