Summary
“I want your fist inside me.”
Mydei spits out his drink. It lands all over Phainon’s face, who stays unmoving with his quintessential smile, his bangs and clothes now damp with pomegranate juice. Mydei wipes his mouth and looks at Phainon as if the latter had just put toothpaste in his bread and ate it.
“Deliverer,” Mydei says very slowly, “what the fuck did you just say?”

Summary
Anaxa scowls. “Are you trying to miss the point deliberately, or are you just arguing for no reason?”
Mydei throws his hands up. “Well, perhaps I’m just stupid!”
“Congratulations on the riveting epiphany,” Phainon says, grimacing at the soreness of his ass, “Can someone please untie me now?”

Summary
Phainon cracks a sly smile, and it’s infuriating just how perfectly his mouth curves upwards, how his eyes moon slightly, the way his hair splays out across the ground like a silvery halo, marred by ash and dirt and blood.
Like dragging coal across frosted glass, Mydei wants to do nothing more than to ruin him.

Summary
“Tell me. If one day Mondstadt falls, where would you go?” Dainsleif asks.
“Nowhere,” Kaeya responds without a second of hesitation.
“Why?” Dainsleif asks, iron-rust-bitterness adorning the edge of his words like an unsheathed old blade. “Even when the people here are blind to their own agency, to what their belief entails? Surely you understand as well as I do. People like you and I are not the products of ignorance and peace.”

Summary
Kaveh blinks again, and then the world falls back into place.
“What’s wrong?” a voice asks him from the side, and when he swivels his head around there stands Alhaitham, in his black turtleneck and chartreuse jacket and quizzical expression, and when Kaveh looks up again he finds that the sky is gone.
Kaveh experiences his very first dream.

Summary
“I want to be prepared,” Kevin tells her.
“You want peace of mind,” Aponia corrects him. “You know that is impossible.”
Or, what she means is this: there is no true martyrdom. There is no greater good. You want to save things simply because you seek solace from acts of sacrifice.
A study in dreams, and the ends of worlds.

Summary
“Not long before spring arrives, right?” Halfdan hums. “I can’t wait to see the Inteyvats in bloom.”
Dainsleif stares fondly at the scene laid out in front of him—and yet deep inside the hollow of his chest, something seems to take root. Like a cold hand prying his ribs apart, fracturing them one by one by one, slinging his heart into a quiet, solitary orbit.

Summary
He almost imagines it having gone like this: my name is Zhongli, he would’ve said.
I know who you are, the masked stranger would reply, barely a murmur, louder than any trumpet of war. You bathe your hands in the blood of sinners, and call it order.

Summary
The bough of the great tree lies hidden in the heart of the abyss. The skeleton of a bygone dynasty still barely remains standing; towering stone arches curling inwards like broken ribs around the heart. A cage. An embrace.
INFINITY, the voice murmurs, distorted. You are alone. INFINITY. INFINITY. INFINITY.

“Oh, then you’re in luck!” Amber winks. “Reception packages, ceremony packages, flower baskets, bouquets, buttonholes, corsages—you name it, we’ve got it!”
The wedding planner takes his phone out of his pocket. “Let’s see… we need five large arrangements for the reception, eight for the main hall, one red rose for each guest, and—”
“We will take them all,” Zhongli declares in a heartbeat.

Summary
“There’s someone there.” Guizhong says evenly, and suddenly Azhdaha’s feet turn into lead.
There in the distance, a single figure stands beneath the great Dragon-Queller tree: a sight that Azhdaha has only ever allowed himself to dream of in the loneliest of nights.

Summary
It goes like this.
You want to see your friends smile. You want to see him smile. But even though the humans think that you live long enough to live forever, it is an undeniable fact that no mere stone can outlive the universe.

The only thing stopping him is, unfortunately, a little green menace currently hanging off his elbow.

Summary
“Princess! Are you there?”
Silence.
“Oh, balls,” Childe grumbles, unsheathing his twin anelaces and stretching out his shoulder muscles, before he thrusts one of the blades between the stone bricks, wriggles it, and stabs the other into the stone above his head, “I really gotta do everything myself here, huh?”
Prince Ajax sets out to find a tower in the woods.

Summary
Slim fingers skim over the thin skin of his thorax, and Zhongli’s breath hitches.
“Our conviction,” he whispers lowly, grabbing Childe’s hand and pushing the fingertips against the skin. His gnosis rumbles steadily just beneath the surface, like a beast below the water line. “I want to consecrate it.”

Summary
“Was that a confession?” Childe brings his hands up to his face. His head hurts from where it had slammed against the ground. “Because that was unromantic as fuck. I want a redo.”
Childe is the most unreliable narrator in the world, especially when the story keeps taking him by surprise.

Summary
There's a quaint little coffee shop that catches Childe's eye as soon as soon as he arrives into town. The man that works inside is more exhilarating than any drink Childe has ever tasted.
