Summary
The crown prince of Sumeru is cursed to die by the magical lands beyond his kingdom.
This does not stop him from going there anyway.
Or from befriending the prickly boy who lives there.
“Why are you always alone out here?”
“I didn’t invite conversation.”
“But we’re talking already.”
“We are not.”
“We are!”
“…”
“Hey! You can’t just not talk now!”(Or: A prince with a deadline meets an outcast with a secret.)

The Adeptus Distribution System Never Misses by the_untamed_poet25

Summary
Falling in love was nothing like falling in battle.
In battle, there was the rush of adrenaline, the clarity of instinct. You knew the stakes. You understood the cost. You braced yourself for the impact.
But this—this was something else entirely.
It was in the little things.
It was in the way Zhongli never failed to pour him tea first, even though Childe always gulped it down too fast and burned his tongue. It was in the way Xiao, despite all his scowling, started showing up at their table without an excuse, as if some part of him had accepted the ridiculous notion that he belonged here. It was in the mornings, when Childe woke up before Zhongli, stretching in the golden dawn, and realized that this—this quiet, steady life—felt more like victory than any battle ever had.
In which Childe learns that “home” is not a place you conquer, but a place where someone saves your seat.
(Or, the one where Childe accidentally adopts a Yaksha, marries a god, retires from the Fatui, and calls it character development.)

how love endures, unforgotten (as stone does, as tide does, as longing does) by the_untamed_poet25

Summary
Zhongli is careful after that.
The moment he sees the young harbinger—sees those ocean eyes, that sharp, boyish smile—he knows.
The world has brought him back.
Not as he was, not as the man Zhongli once held in his arms, kissed under the pale hush of the moon, whispered devotion to between the hush of battles and the quiet of morning light. But as something new. A blank slate, untouched by the weight of history.
Childe does not know him.
Childe will never know him.
But Zhongli does.
It is a cruel thing, memory. Like the tide that recedes and returns, like the mountain that stands long after the civilization it bore has crumbled, Zhongli remains. A god in mortal skin, walking among those who do not know his name in the language of worship anymore.
And yet, what is worship to a man who once held love in his hands?
What is eternity when the one he would have shared it with is dust beneath his feet?
Or, grief is easy when the body is cold; it is unbearable when the body smiles back at you.

Summary
“Care to make a wager?”
Illuga blinked. “What?”
Varka chuckled. Illuga still had so much to learn about the world.
“You’re right, Illuga. Flins has no idea what it’s like being on the other end of his constant torment. So, why don’t we show him?”after being whipped around by flins one too many times, varka and illuga decide that it's time he gets a taste of his own medicine. what they don't realize, however, is that this may create a monster they're not prepared to handle.
