Summary
In which Ajax falls into the Abyss for three years instead of months. It spits him back out differently, with a taint in his heart and more battle experience than any mortal since the archon war. That’s the thing about the Abyss; it takes something from you when you enter.
And when you leave?
It gives something back.
Or:
Everything you need to know about entering, living in and escaping the Abyss. Also includes how to make yourself a wanted criminal in your home country, how to take care of your family while running from said country, how to snag yourself a foreign archon for a husband, and more.
Note: Do not attempt at home.

Summary
To become fond of a place, to feel part of it... it always requires a reason. Perhaps it's someone you've met or something you've experienced here. Or perhaps you enjoy the atmosphere of Liyue and you will become accostumed to it.
When Tartaglia is given the mission to take the Geo Archon's Gnosis by the Tsaritsa, he happily accepts. It's the perfect deal for him, he gets to fight a really powerful enemy all the while enjoying the beautiful landscapes and tasty cuisine. So what if he's going to be hated by the locals by the time he leaves, after all? It's just business, after all, nothing more and nothing less. He won't be setting foot in Liyue ever again, so why should he be worried about his reputation in a foreign land.
Little did he know he would soon be eating back those words.
Everyone needs a reason to stay. I hope you can find yours soon.
Tends to update on Wednesdays and Sundays.
Part 1: chapter 1-47

Summary
“You need to understand that I was out of options,” Zhongli quietly said. “I would never do such a thing without your consent if it wasn’t the only way I could imagine saving your life without endangering anyone else’s.”
Childe didn’t reply for a moment, reluctantly deflating from an attacking position. He was still pissed, that much was true, but he needed to know what his situation was. What sort of contract could have possibly tied him to Zhongli that wouldn’t make him a deserter? What sort of bond they could have made that Tsaritsa wouldn’t dare to challenge? Unless…
The realisation dawned at him with a horrible thud of his heart, at the same time as Zhongli said it out loud, finalising Childe’s fate. “That being said… I initiated an adeptal marriage contract between us.”
Childe would have laughed until he choked if he didn’t have the most violent urge to cry.
Or, saving Childe's life, Zhongli accidentally gets him into an adeptal marriage, which has very interesting consequences for Childe and his still broken heart.
