Summary
Jedi do not form attachments. It's what they were always taught - to let go, for giving in to one's emotions was to open oneself to the dark side of the Force. Jedi dedicate their lives to the Order. To the Republic. To peace.
But with war raging across the galaxy, how could one simply 'let go' of the bonds formed over so many years and strengthened by conflict? It's a question that haunts Zhongli sometimes, though he would never dare act upon it.
Little does he know that Guizhong often wonders the same.

Summary

Summary
Guizhong is the Lady of Death, whose sole duty is to ferry the souls of those who die at sea to the afterlife.
Zhongli is the fresh-faced Navy recruit she fished from a shipwreck out of pity and guilt.
By all means, they should have parted and gone their separate ways, never to meet again. After she had seen him off at the docks of Liyue Harbour, he should have vanished from her life forever, disillusioned by the reality of life at sea. He had instead told her they would meet again.
And he was right.

A series of connected one-shots inspired by Guili Discord and Pirates of the Caribbean.

Summary
A dragon offered a deal to a goddess, and tempted, she accepted.
Legend has it that these two gods once roamed the earth together. Paper records may have been lost in the great flood that swallowed the Guili Plains, but what’s carved in stone will endure forever.
Had the dragon known the future, would he have offered the deal at all?

Summary
While waiting for the Chasm to reopen, Lumine and Paimon encounter a woman claiming herself to be Guizhong, the long-dead god of dust of the former Guili Assembly. She has been thrown from 'her Liyue' to the current one against her will, and if she does not return, both her own Teyvat and the current Teyvat may be at risk of falling apart. So begins a whirlwind of reunions between Liyue's past and present, and how to approach the future.
Takes place before 2.6/Perilous Trail. Written before 3.4!

Summary
And, oh, there it is. That damned face. That heart-wrenching expression.
Clorinde, her heart bared for Navia and her eyes shining more pathetically than anyone else in the world. She’s like a little kicked dog, looking up with the lightest of pouts and her breath held in silent question. Her eyebrows tilt up as if asking Navia for the world and Navia hates how her chest clenches at the simple recognition that this is the woman who killed her father.
It’s not fair.
It’s just not fair.

Summary
"I lack perspective?"
"Yes!"
He spoke without thinking- Guizhong always had the capability to bring out that side of him.
Zhongli narrowed his eyes, daring. "Then, prove it."
