Summary
Yet Zhongli touches him with such gentleness that Childe feels as if he is being blessed by the one he is meant to wound. Childe could kill him as he reaches for Zhongli’s heart and rips out what makes him so holy.
It would be such a beautiful, shameful sight.

Summary
As a child, when Kaeya has a nightmare, Diluc lets him brush his hair. As adults, however, they do not share a kind word, let alone an act so intimate. The resentment grows until it boils over, three years of feelings bursting out all in one night.

Summary
Kaeya had grown. The baby fat was gone for good. His shoulders had broadened, and his sun-kissed face was as sharp as his smile. Diluc wouldn’t have recognized him, had it not been for the sleek black patch over Kaeya’s right eye. The left eye widened ever so slightly at the sight of Diluc. That was expected; three years had changed them both.
When Diluc returned to Mondstadt, he found Kaeya had taken his place.
(In which Diluc overthinks his already complicated relationship with Kaeya, in a compromising position with Kaeya.)

Summary
“You are infuriating,” Ningguang says, clenching her teeth.
“I know,” Beidou says, smirking. Then, boldly as Beidou does, she reaches her arm under the table and slides her hand down the curve of Ningguang’s waist, fingers lingering at her hip like the slow slick tide of waves, rushing water. “It’s why you like me.”

Summary
It's said the Ley Lines remember all things that happen in this world, from the surface down to the deepest depths...
But in the hidden corners where the Gods' gaze does not fall, there are those who dream of dreaming.There's a dormant bud where Kaeya's eye once was. One day, it will bloom.

At fifteen, Kaeya tells Diluc he won't dance for him.
He has yet to keep that promise, and with every passing day, the dangers of dancing grow closer to home.
Of course, the only recourse for this is to fake date and wait it out.

Summary
The Burning Rescue firehouse is turning into the place to go if you need to speak on behalf of the Burnish. There’s lockers cleared out for the files, tables pushed together into a tiny office. Ignis brought Lio a tablet computer on the fourth day, said “Government issue,” and dropped a taped-up charger next to it. The building hasn’t run out of coffee yet.
They’re all right, these firemen.

Summary
Sora snorts. “No, it chose you, silly! Riku is going to be an amazing Keyblade Master, I just know it. He is going to go on so many adventures, and be a hero!”
There is no trace of envy in his voice, no malice. He sounds so excited for this Riku, so proud of him.
Lonely, Riku thinks, and immediately wishes he never came to this reality, never saw this Sora, never heard him. That he never had to confront a Sora that was lonely, because that was so deeply, deeply wrong, that Riku could almost feel it as a blow between his ribs, something more terrible and painful than any Organization member could ever inflict on him.
(or: when Riku tries to find Sora after the events of Kingdom Hearts 3, he finds a version he never thought could exist. They help each other.)

Summary
No more borders around, or below, or above, so long as you champion the ones you love...
Riku felt as though he had been waiting his entire life to become a keyblade master—ever since the handle slid into his grip, ever since a tall, kind stranger had beckoned him to take it.
With the Mark of Mastery exam looming, Riku had never felt less deserving. He had shut his heart away for so long, he barely remembered the sound of its call—and as he struggled to learn to listen again, he began to understand just how much he still had to reckon with…and just how much it would ask of him.

Post-KH2 and pre-3D, Riku and Sora spend a while training with the Radiant Garden Restoration Committee in preparation for their exam.

Summary
Riku needed one thing: an apartment to live in. That was it. But he didn't really have any other options than the apartment listing that read "must be okay with a very sweet cat and one somewhat messy ghost." He didn't expect the apartment (or what counted as the ghost) to change his life. He definitely didn't plan on magic or witches. And Sora - well, Sora was a bonus, a beautiful shining person who didn't deserve the ugly black curse on his heart. Sora, who went out of his way to help people. Sora, who was magic. Sora, who glowed.
It was inevitable, probably, that someone as lonely Riku would fall in love with him. Discovering everything he was missing and everything he had forgotten, now that was a surprise to them both.

Summary
In a world currently facing an industrial revolution and a cultural shift away from long-standing religions, Cam is a young man with an extraordinary gift to see the animal gods of old. He grows up in a rural mountain village alongside a fox-god named Hara and Hara's priest, Lin.
----
“I just mean, foxes are very witty. They’re pranksters, you know? Wolves obviously have their own issues, but I’d take that over the sneaky shit foxes get up to. They can certainly conjure up insult like that.” He snapped his fingers.
Sneaky shit? I felt my hackles rise a bit—Hara was nothing but gentle, kind, and patient. “I love the fox's charm,” I said simply.
“How lucky they are to have you,” said the Wolf Goddess. She patted my cheek.
I should have noticed that first red flag.
