    Summary

    Once upon a time, a tall, tall tower almost grazed the clouds in the sky. In that tower were two people, a cursed princess, and her equally cursed dragon.

    They were exceptionally bored.

    (or, Childe happens upon a tower. He doesn't realize that the occupants are going to rope him into solving their problems.)

    Summary

    "Times have changed." Zhongli smiled, nostalgia evident in his eyes. "Liyue Harbour is but a memory of the past. Perhaps the name Liyue is an old-fashioned one, but I always have loved the city dearly. No matter what face it takes on, at its heart, the city will always be Liyue to me in some form. And that is why I named the teahouse after it."

    --

    The owner of Liyue Teahouse is traditional, refined, and seemingly older than he looks. As for how old… quite a bit older than expected, as one of his regulars comes to find out.

    Summary

    "Mr. Zhongli," Chef Mao says suddenly, "is a little strange, don't you think?"

    Surprised by the sudden and completely unsolicited comment, Xiangling looks up from her wok, tracing her father's eye to said Mr. Zhongli, leaning over an antique vase at one of the roadside stores. In her time at Wanmin Restaurant, however, she has certainly seen her fair share of strange customers, so after a moment, she just turns back to her frying, flipping the xianbing in the wok over one by one.

    "Why do you say that?" she asks, reaching across the counter for the cooking oil.

    "Dearest daughter," Chef Mao says then, "he is lecturing the seller on the origins of his own vase."

    Liyue Harbor is hive full of incorrigible gossips. Xiangling navigates the rumor mill, goes ingredient hunting with Zhongli, and in the process, finds out that Zhongli is very, very bad at pretending to be human.

    Summary

    The first time Morax laid eyes on the mortal named Xiangling, it was as Rex Lapis during the Rite of Descension. She was a tiny little thing then, jamming her incense stick into the censer quite unceremoniously and squeezing her eyes shut as she made her wish.

    I wanna make the best food ever and help baba out a lot, because mama can’t anymore.

    He received her prayer.

    Summary

    After receiving a priceless gift from Mr. Zhongli of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, Baizhu finds himself enamored by the man, going out of his way to try repaying him, only to find that the other is always two steps ahead of him.

    But he doesn't let that slow him down, and yearns for something more.

    Unfortunately, that geo vision tied at Zhongli's waist is a warning to the doctor; such a handsome man with a vision like that is unfortunately plagued by a skull as thick as the stone he wields.

    Summary

    Sarah Miller is, without a doubt, a daddy’s girl.

    She never stood a chance, really. It’s always been just her and her father. Her mama died when she was just a baby, so young she couldn’t remember her face if she tried. And Daddy never brought home no girls from the bars or giggly waitresses like Uncle Tommy used to before he met Aunt Maria.

    Never in her life has she had to share him.

    That is, until Daddy comes home late on Thursday evening with news for Sarah.

    Summary

    “Do a trick.”

    She blinks, more than slightly startled, her struggle ceasing for a moment under the force of her bewilderment. In her defense, she’s still being held by a hand that feels like it could snap her wrist like a twig just by squeezing too hard, so she thinks she has a right to be a little confused.

    Also the words make no goddamn sense.

    “What?” She asks blankly, giving another testing tug against the hold. No dice. His grip doesn’t go tighter, but neither is he anywhere close to letting go.

    “You’re out here doing magic and shit so you can steal from the crowd, right? Do some magic if you want the money.”

    She gives him an incredulous look.

    “Dude, I just tried to,” she’s suddenly aware that they are in public and that she and Riley will likely need this section of the park in the future, “rob you,” she says in a low hiss. “And now what? You want a fucking show?”

    “You want the money? You ain’t stealing it from me. Do a trick and earn it, fair and square.”

    “Are you Spanish?” Ellie asked.

    She felt Joel stiffen, presumably in response to the sudden break of silence.

    “No,” Joel said after a second. “My ma was Mexican. Not Spanish. But she spoke Spanish.”

    “Do you speak Spanish?” Ellie asked incredulously.

    “Sure I do,” Joel said. “Couldn’t’ve gotten by growing up if I didn’t. My ma woulda been embarrassed to all hell at family gatherings.”

    Maria is standing beside a large row of diaper boxes. Well, standing might be the wrong word. She looks…hunched. One hand is wrapped around her swollen middle, the other is bracing her body upright. Her face is scrunched up like she’s in pain, and Ellie knows exactly what that fucking means this late in a pregnancy.
    “Dude,” she says.
    Maria startles, gasping a little and turning to look at Ellie with surprise.
    “Sorry,” Ellie grimaces. “Are you-”
    “Yes,” Maria breathes, voice strained. “I’m in labor, Ellie. Have been for most of the day.”

    She’s not expecting the bombshell he drops on her.

    “Ellie, this is Joel.”

    “What?” She’s not sure why Tommy thinks this is the time to joke around. “No, that’s my dad. Marlene said so.”

    “I’d know my brother anywhere,” Tommy insists, eyes still locked on the photo.
