Summary
Kaveh is living through his lowest of lows, which leads him to drink far too much all too often, struggling to find a reason to keep fighting. A chance at some respite comes in the unlikeliest of forms, as his best-friend-turned-distant-acquaintance-whom-he-hates-but-not-really offers him a place to stay.
The story of how two idiots learn to forgive past hurt and fall in love. Or, perhaps, it was love from the start.

Bookmarker's Notes
Genuinely my favorite Kavaitham fic ever written. There’s intermittent flashbacks to the Akademiya and Kaveh’s childhood. Every single Sumeru character is represented, and represented well. The cultural representation in this fic is insane, on top of incredible characterization. The dialogue feels so real, like a conversation I could have with someone right now. Kaveh and AlHaitham dancing around each other and learning to love again is balanced so perfectly that it feels fragile. There’s also deaf AlHaitham… I think this is the Kavaitham fic. Period. You can't convince me nereno doesn't write for Hoyo...

Summary
When the hydro sovereign arrives in Liyue, Zhongli suspects that carrying out judgment isn’t the only reason he has come. After all, he could have sought out any other archon first, but he had come to him, the only dragon beside Neuvillette who still roamed Teyvat. Going off a hunch, Zhongli decides to make him an offer: He’ll teach him how to transform into a dragon. What he asks for in exchange is that his trial will take place in Liyue, only between the two of them.
Neuvillette, who has lived in the body of a human his entire life, would do anything to finally find his true form; even spend a considerable amount of time with a man he deeply mistrusts.

Bookmarker's Notes
My favorite Zhonglette fic ever. The amount of worldbuilding and lore and thought put into this fic about dragons, and Teyvat, and Zhongli… We are given crumbs to work with in terms of lore, at least at this point in Genshin’s storyline, and WatersOfLiyue works miracles with it. Not to mention the character portrayals, the cultural representation (lots of fun little traditional Chinese tidbits), the sheer emotion. I would recommend this fic to people who haven’t even played Genshin Impact. This one is just incredible. Chapter 9 especially owns my entire soul. This is one of those fics where I genuinely don’t have the words to express how well written it is. I could go on and on and on about each and every detail that I enjoy.

Summary
He knew Penacony would be a success, he even thought it would be a way out, but it all comes down to this.
Aventurine tosses the clothes in a corner and starts to put on the IPC uniform. He is deliberate, he is careful, he is precise. He has to be the closest to the Aventurine that the Stonehearts want. He hates every second of it, he will hate every second of this.
He can only manage to put on the dress shirt before his hands start shaking against the buttons. He breathes deep. “Shit. Shit.”
Aventurine is scared.
Or: Aventurine and Ratio before and after his hearing that determines if he remains a Stoneheart.

Summary
“It’s okay to be scared,” Eraserhead says. “I’d be scared too, if I didn’t know where I was or how I got there.”
The tears Izuku managed to hold back earlier fill his eyes again, and he bites hard at his lip. He’s seven now; he has to be brave. “I’m okay,” he says softly. “Th-thank you for saving me.”
Those strange, dark eyes soften a little. “It’s my job,” he says simply.
Still. Izuku never got to thank him, the first time.
Izuku gets hit by a quirk that de-ages him to seven years old, and relearns what it means to be taken care of.
