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.

“Are you scared of me?”
“No,” Zhongli whispers, gaze still unwavering.
Childe’s lip curls, fingers digging into Zhongli’s jaw. “You should be.”

Summary
Here are the other things simmering under the surface that Zhongli doesn’t understand so well, but they are true in their own right: Zhongli, the funeral consultant, looks at Childe, the Eleventh Harbinger of the Cryo Archon, and feels as covetous as some of the old gods he had so despised.

Summary
The bedroom is cool and sunk into the blue dimness of dawn. Childe’s hair and skin shine in the pale, diffuse light—he has kicked his sheets off sometime in the night, and he looks warm and mussed from the doorway that Zhongli stands in. Zhongli’s pillow is clutched to his chest.

Summary
Childe tugs him forward, and he goes willingly. Those strong fingers are at his jaw, tilting his face up, and then Childe kisses him, sweet and salty like the sunsettia he had been eating, a spring melt flood.

What I Cannot Put into Words, I Offer You in the Weight of Gold by suibianitsfine

Summary
“You’re not…” Childe’s head may have been angled like a baffled puppy, but he couldn’t help it, “Put off by all of that?”
As the disk of orange dipped below the Liyuan waters and the twilight sky remained illuminated by dusky remnants of what had been, Zhongli’s golden-edged features took on a radiance of their own. It wasn’t the lights playing tricks on him when Childe saw the man’s eyes gleam, and he craved to know what that meant.
“Perhaps I give you too much credit.” He was smiling, now, and Childe’s breath caught in his throat. That was certainly new. “Maybe you do not listen as much as I thought you do.”
Childe processes just how different Rex Lapis, God of Contracts, and Zhongli, Wangsheng Funeral Consultant, really are.
They coincide at the worst of times, and it does some truly awful things to his heart.

Summary
Forget the Rite of Descension. Forget the Geo Archon. Tartaglia was in love and all he wanted was to spoil the love of his life with every bit of his fortune and body, whether Zhongli wants it or not.
Zhongli loves, and loves, and loves, until the lies become too much.

Summary
There is a lattice of ridged scar tissue on Childe's back, even more pronounced than on his front. It's strangely symmetrical. When Zhongli runs his hand down the crisscross pattern Childe flinches as if he'd just been slapped.
"Don't," he hisses and pulls away.
Written fort the Tartali week 2 prompt Insecurities.

Summary
A man is approaching him with a bundle of hardware, straps, and coiled ropes in his arms. He’s wearing a tailored suit — definitely expensive — but missing a tie, and his shirt is unbuttoned far enough for Zhongli to see a nasty set of scars that run across his chest. He’s very attractive, a little intimidating, and not at all what he’d imagine an accountant would look like-This can’t be the accountant, can it?
Zhongli finds it difficult to ask for what he wants. Maybe this mysterious accountant will be able to help.

Summary
Childe's face burns. “Zhongli,” he hisses. “This is the theatrical performance you wanted me to attend?”
Zhongli’s eyes widen at the distress in his expression. “Indeed. It has a rich and interesting history, and the actors are consummate professionals. We’re exceedingly lucky to be blessed with their presence in Liyue.”
Childe struggles for the language to describe the spectacle they just witnessed. “But they’re— She— This is practically softcore pornography.”
Zhongli pulls his tea nearer and takes a long sip. “There is a carnal element to the proceedings, yes. But it’s closer to art than... pornography.” When he lowers his cup, an imperceptible smile plays across his lips.

i taste gold on your fingertips, silver on your lips by Orphine
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)

Summary
Zhongli can see what he didn't before--the intensity in Childe's eyes, the way his gaze seems to lap at the contours of his body like a hungry flame. Previously, he thought Childe had been sizing him up for a fight. Now he knows it may be...
Not innocent, no. But different.
"I'll make you a bet," Childe says, one chopstick aimed at Zhongli. It rests just beneath the consultant's chin, glinting. "A bet is a little like a contract, isn't it?"
Zhongli makes no move to pull away. "What do you intend to wager?"
A Teyvat where none of the common folk know of monsters or magic will not last for long, if Childe has anything to do with it. His main job is to hunt down and eliminate sirens, mysterious beings with incredible power and influence. But he's taken an interest in one of his potential targets, an uncannily beautiful consultant with a mountain of secrets--an interest that is cautiously returned. They may be on opposing sides, but Zhongli doesn't like the lies he has to tell any more than Childe does--and to a Harbinger, love and war is the same thing, really.In which Zhongli and Childe try to convince each other to betray their ideals (and their better judgement) for love.

Summary
But Zhongli whispers, his low voice rooted in the back of Childe’s mind. “Changsun, the merchant, who is never too Mora-enthralled to turn away a needy child. There’s Tiantian—she will allow anyone to join the Adventurer’s Guild—she knows what it is to be desperate.”
Childe ducks away from them and hurries out over the bridge. It’s a warm, sunny day, the kind he would have complained about, whining about his delicate Snezhnayan skin. “It’ll burn, or worse, freckle. Would you still like me if I was freckled?”
Then Zhongli would say, “The people of Liyue will remember your sacrifice.” And he would wrinkle his nose.Or: after it all goes down, Childe takes a walk.
