Summary
Zhongli loved looking after the Hydro Archon's statues. Each day, he swept away the leaves at the feet, scrubbed the dirt from its base, and dusted the stone face with careful touches. And if he blushed while wiping the exposed chest or the arms held in an eternal fighting stance, well there was no one around to witness.
To Zhongli and to the mortals of Teyvat, the statues were simply just that - stone depictions of the gods who protected the land. But to those residing in Celestia, they were much more than lifeless beings, for within each statue nestled a fragment of awareness. So the Seven knew when their statue was desecrated or scorned, and they knew when it was loved.
And Tartaglia’s statues were loved.

Summary
Ajax is sinking. Ajax is sinking, and he’s drowning, and he’s scared.
As the ice burns his tears and blurs his vision, there is a sudden warmth. He sees the outline of a face, and amber, and dark hair. And they’re floating above the lake, and Ajax realizes, just before he drifts off, that an archon - from tales of old - has saved him.
Or, Zhongli saves Childe from drowning when he's a kid and Childe decides that when he grows up he wants to become an archon, find, and marry his savior.
