    Summary

    Everything comes at a cost; it's about whether you're willing to pay.

    Summary

    Childe is a competitive gamer. He’s top elo in dozens of PVP queues and he’s made his fair share of frenemies along the way. He’s no stranger to flaming, dirty talk, or cringe roleplaying, either – so when a new game throws him a new rival, he’s doesn’t think twice about chatting them up.

    Polite and angelic one moment, toxic and obscene the next – Scarahime1031 is, Childe realizes, maybe a bit more than his confused heart can handle…

    Summary

    To live and thrive, whales consume tons of plankton.

    But what would a celestial whale need to eat? Such an animal which crosses the skies and then the cosmic void?

    It’s unknown. But there is nothing else but stardust to swallow.

    -

    This short story is a take on how Childe and Guizhong would potentially interact with each other in canon. A mind experiment of sorts or just a complete insanity? You decide.

    No matter what your decision will be, I just hope you’ll have a great time reading this.

    -

    Inspired by my unfortunate melancholy and the feelings I’ve never asked for - and ███████, the disquieting muse of this piece.

    Summary

    there were always two of them. two deaths, eternal lovers. two concepts.
    but won’t some variety be better?

    who knows. the author definitely doesn't.

    Summary

    Childe and Zhongli’s friendship is unlikely, with one being an impulsive, confident, and adventurous billionaire who’s friends with virtually everyone and sought after by more, and the other a quiet, reserved, and introverted old soul who says “please” and “thank you” to leaves on the sidewalk. And yet, they get along with one another better than anyone else. They’ve been friends for years and found themselves in their own troublesome dilemmas at the same time.

    Childe, a young CEO of the multi-billion dollar company “Fatui”, is dealing with more inappropriate gestures and remarks in regards to him being single than he cares for. Zhongli, a consultant of the Wangsheng Funeral Home, is going through a financial crisis, with every possible liability hitting him at once. When ranting to each other over drinks one night, they come to the most absurd solution to both of their problems: pose Zhongli as Childe’s boyfriend and sugar baby, just until everything settles, of course. Childe has more than enough money to spare, Zhongli doesn’t mind helping a friend in need, and their arrangement is flawless. At least, it appears to be that way.
