Summary
"Man, with that reputation sounds like I should be part of your House, haha!”
A pause. “You could be, you know.”
He stilled, pushing away from the brunette to look them in the eyes proper. “What?”
Zhongli took his hands in their own, cupping them between their much larger and softer ones. “Be a part of this House."
He looked away. This family was so close knit, would it really be ok for him to just...step in?

Summary
Childe lounged in his chair, legs spread lazily across the arms, sipping at a cup of tea he had poured for himself earlier. Normally that wouldn’t be anything of note, the problem was that Zhongli’s sensitive nose could smell how poorly the tea was made. A Jade Cloud green tea, a very delicate blend harvested from the fields in Qingce, one that should normally have a sweet aroma with a slight nuttiness to it. And while he could smell the undertones of what the tea should smell like, it was overpowered by a horrible bitterness.
“Childe,” he said, “your tea smells foul.”
Or: Improperly brewed tea still has it's uses!

Zhongli gave a shrug back at his home. “It was nice, I’m glad I was able to spend the time with you.”
Childe’s heart sank. “You still don’t like Christmas?”
Zhongli sighed. “Childe…I’m never going to love it the way you do. But that’s ok…because while I don’t find joy in the holiday itself, I do find joy in how much you love it, and that’s all I need to enjoy myself.”
Childe’s eyes lit up, his heart grew three sizes, and he felt fit to burst with how much he loved this man.
Wait, loved? Loved?

Summary
Childe had a date.
That in itself wasn’t an issue, he’d had tons of dates! And while he’d never really settled down in a relationship, he’d still dated plenty. He liked casual! Plus, he’d never really found someone he wanted to settle with. Even subs he’d worked with in the past were strictly no strings. Sure, his parents gave him so much grief, asking when he was going to settle down, bring a nice girl or boy home. But that was ok! He could deal with their pestering. No, the fact he had a date wasn’t the issue.
Childe had a date with a guy.

Summary
“I really, really don’t wanna take you to jail, OK? They’ll eat you alive in there. I know this was just an honest mistake on your end, but I still gotta file a report. So, I can either file that report truthfully, or I can tell them that Celestia is just a new age metaphysics shop, and give you a second chance to file for that license. Doing that puts my career at huge risk though, so I’d want something in return.”
Zhongli nodded. “Like what, officer?”
“Like a piece of that juicy ass.”
There was a moment of silence between them, before Zhongli shifted, going up onto his knees on the backseat of the cramped car, and straddled Childe’s waist. He shed his coat, and leaned in and whispered into his ear.
“I’ve done a bad, bad thing sir. I think I need to be punished, Officer Tartaglia.”
Or: Zhongli takes "fuck the police" a bit too literally

The Great Pretender by Discontinuous Qualia (Umi_E)

Summary
Sunset eyes flutter shut, dark lashes drawing jagged shadows on flushed cheeks in the golden sliver of sunlight cast over the perfect being in front of her. Then, as if to take her to her word, Veritas suddenly rolls her hips against her fingers and her body paints a beautiful arch, the sculpture of a goddess caught in ecstasy for her eyes only to worship.
Or: Aventurine jokingly propositions Ratio. Things get a little out of hand.

bend over, let me see you shake your tail feather! by SuugarCake for Angel_Bee_blue

Summary
“Have I done something to offend you?”
Aventurine practically heard a record scratch as his naughty daydream came to a halt. “No. Why would you think that?”
“Your feathers,” Ratio admitted a little awkwardly. “They’re... alert again.”
. ♤ . ♡ . ♢ . ♧ .
As a peacock harpy, Aventurine is used to knowing when to artfully strut his stuff to gain an advantage. That all goes out the window when a gorgeous new centaur in town keeps involuntarily triggering his biological response to attract a mate.
Despite the constant blunders and misunderstandings, Aventurine finds himself growing closer and closer to the beautiful and clever man named Ratio. Harpy behaviours are thankfully one of the few things the doctor lacks knowledge in but just how long can Aventurine keep up his nonchalant facade when his tail feathers cause a scene whenever the stallion does so much as smile in his direction?
or,
Centaur Ratio is none the wiser as harpy Aventurine may as well have a flashing neon sign above his head reading, 'Please Rail Me!'

You Again, Doctor? by AracelysDelusion for ghostphone

Summary
Ratio looked over to Jade's side to see a man with blond hair, bejeweled eyes, and that same branding on his neck he had been unable to forget for the last Amber Era staring straight at him.
Even the man looked surprised for a second before his expression melted into a shit-eating grin that gave a brief glimpse at his sharpened canines.
You have got to be kidding him.
“Oh? Do you two already know each other, doctor? Well then that makes the process much easier,” Jade spoke up, "I would like to introduce you to the Stoneheart’s newest member, Aventurine. You two will be working together for quite some time, so get comfortable."
OR
Ever since dying and reviving himself through sheer will, Ratio has known immortal life to be long and painfully monotonous. That is, until he keeps encountering the same blond man across entire lifetimes, unchanged, irritatingly charming, and very much alive.
When he finally meets that mysterious man again, now a Stoneheart at the IPC and his assigned partner, Ratio is dragged into a friendship, a feeding arrangement, and countless new variables he never experienced before in five Amber Eras of existence.

Meet Me in a Havana Casino Like It’s 1921 by Jeanthreetwoone

Summary
Ratio is a renowned chess Grandmaster who holds a great interest in academic topics, including but not limited to mathematics and philosophy.
Aventurine is a young contender, a genius, one who plays purely by instinct; his sacrificed pawns fly off the board faster than his opponents leave the room after an embarrassing defeat.
A Capablanca to his Lasker.
They play in a tournament. Only one will emerge victorious.

Summary
Something wet splashes onto Aventurine’s cheek. It’s warm. Water?
It curves down his cheek, following the contours of his face until it finds his lips.
Sharp. Metallic.
Blood.
It’s blood.
Drip.
It’s Ratio’s blood.
