    Summary

    His heart was gone.

    His father had taken it: ripped open his waistcoat and shirt and chest panel and pulled the mechanical organ out carefully.

    (In which the puppet loses his fight with the Nameless Puppet and time rewinds further than he knew it could)

    Summary

      His calcifying heart twinged at the thought of Cid.

    'Do you see, Cid?' he thought as his vision failed like the rest of his broken body, the curse creeping over his flesh like the malignant thing it was.  'It’s done.  I did it for you, for everyone.  I just wish you could see it.'

    The water lapped around him, under him, lifting him off the damp sand slightly, his heart beat struggling in a chest turning rapidly to stone.

    'He knows, Mythos,' a voice he didn’t recognise echoed in his head, though he felt like he should, soothing, gentle like the waves lifting him.  Then; 'quickly, quickly, we have but a moment.'

    NOW! Another voice rumbled, this one familiar, urgent.

    Summary

    Lan Sizhui, Lan Jingyi, Jin Ling, and Ouyang Zizhen listened attentively as Wei Wuxian explained his newest invention: a way to send memories to the past. Satisfied that he dealt with all possible paradoxes and running on -2 hours of sleep, he didn't make note of his sons' frankly concerning expressions.

    "We could change everything!" they shouted simultaneously.

    For better or worse, only time will tell.

    Summary

    The momentum and heavy garments are all too much for the ice. Ajax sinks quickly, and the frigid waters are all too eager to surround him. The layered furred coat acts as an anchor. He is too far deep, and no one is around.

     

    As if anyone would help a sinner like me.

     

    Tired eyes slowly shut under the soon frozen-over lake as his breathing stalls.

     

    Alternatively:
    A much older Childe wakes up after his passing, back into his body when he was a teen. Determined to change his past mistakes, he foregoes the Fatui and becomes a toy-maker. The Qixing is rightfully suspicious of his sudden placement.

    A contract has been signed, and whoever breaks it may they face retribution.

     

    *Edit 4/17/22: yeah, I don't think I'm updating this one guys 😰But most of yall already guessed that😶

    I'll update the day Entirely Out of Spite by Bgtea is completed (never)

    Summary

    "You seem surprised. Was I not who you expected to see? Or is it that the tea is not to your liking?"

    "Ah, no, sorry. I'm fine." Childe shook his head and took the cup that the man poured him. "As you may know, I'm Childe. I mean, of course, you already knew that. You asked for me. But, ah... I never quite got your name." Calm down, Osial. Ajax. Tartaglia. Whichever part of me is flipping out right now.

    "My name?" The man seemed to think longly, taking a slow sip from his teacup. "My name is Zhongli."

    Osial is back in action, but unfortunately, he's back in action with the Archon who sealed him away for centuries. But said-Archon is hot and absolutely sucks at acting.

     

    or in other words

     

    Childe and Osial are one in the same, so they're both dragged into Zhongli's shenanigans.

    Summary

    "Welcome to a new user experience! You have triggered this interface with the keywords, ‘Stupid game! Stupid devs! I want my f*****g money back!’ You are now bound to the character Tartaglia, the Eleventh Harbinger of the Fatui, codename: Childe! We hope you have an enjoyable user experience and we welcome you once again to Genshin Impact 2.0!”

    Those are some of the first words Ajax, starving college student extraordinaire, has the misfortune of hearing upon waking up in a brave new world from what he's fairly sure is a very fatal accident involving water and a shit ton of electricity.

    Okay, so he's not dead. That's good. But what's this about him being stuck playing the character Tartaglia? Tartaglia, as in the no-good, one-dimensional, cartoonish villain who met his untimely, gruesome death in the first act of the original game?

    Forget this. Like hell Ajax is going to share that fate.

    And so begins one man's journey to save himself from his awful destiny.

    Summary

    It’s been two months since the storm, and Childe hasn’t seen Zhongli not even once, not since that fateful meeting with the Signora where the truth is finally unveiled.

    And what a fun little kick to the gut that is, the realization that not only had he been played by all sides, but he's also being tossed aside like trash now that his use had run its course.

    It’s not that Childe doesn’t get it. He’s a Harbinger. He knows first-hand what it means to do his duty, to put the mission first and his personal feelings far, far away, preferably locked up in a box, where it wouldn’t interfere with his job. He knows what it’s like working with vipers, to scheme and plot and lie in wait for the opportune moment to stab his opponent in the back.

    But this time, this time Childe can’t help but feel a little (a lot) gutted.

    Stupid. He’s gotten himself stupidly attached.

    --
    A story about Childe trying to move on after the events of 1.1 Update, but some of his actions have consequences, and those consequences have followed him back to Snezhnaya.

    NOTE: THIS FIC WAS DRAFTED BEFORE 1.1 UPDATE CAME OUT. MIND THE CANON-DIVERGENT TAG FOR THIS REASON.

    Summary

    Granny Rags attempts revenge for Corvo’s interference in the sewers - it doesn't quite go as planned. Corvo likes the fact that his name means ‘crow,’ but that doesn’t mean he ever actually wanted to be one, and for once Daud is (arguably) not responsible for this mess.
