Summary
"You're a hard man to track down!" laughs the most dangerous man on the southern half of the continent. "I've been trying to set up a meeting with you since I arrived, but all of my missives have gone unanswered."
"My apologies, Lord Tartaglia. It's been a tumultuous time, I'm sure you understand," Alhaitham says rather than admit he's been doing a poor job on purpose and that for the first time, it's backfired.
"Please," says the Harbinger, eyes crinkling in the corners as his smile widens; a bit too wide, a few too many teeth, to be entirely benign. "Call me Childe."
After the exhausting events following the overthrowing of Sumeru's government, Alhaitham's one desire is to finally be left alone in peace to his simple, mundane life. Unfortunately, this is about the time when Childe comes to town.

When people are desperate they turn to faith. Panem has done a good job creating a truly secular society, stamping out the religions of the past, but nothing can stop new gods from rising.
-
Or: When Gaea curses Percy to live in a world without the gods, he winds up in District 4 and is chosen as tribute for the 70th Hunger Games. From there, everything just kind of spirals.

Arthur's biggest problem to date, Merlin thinks darkly as he carries yet another load of suspiciously not-really-dirty clothing down the stairs, is an unaccountable fear of anyone, anywhere, suspecting he's capable of being other than a complete and utter prat.

Summary
Tartaglia feels it like a subtle chime in the air, calling out to him, and turns in its direction before he can stop himself.
Although most who Arlecchino associates with end up fumbling in her wake, dominated by her presence, the man she is dancing with neither seems harried nor impressed. The man’s movements as he leads the dance are graceful and precise, and although he and Arlecchino match each other perfectly, never falling out of step, it is clear that he is the one in control of the dance.
The music finally comes to an end. Rather than the usual courtly bow or kiss on the back of her hand, the man simply gives Arlecchino a nod of acknowledgment. Then he turns, amber eyes unerringly catching Childe’s gaze.
—and it is Childe now, because he’s Childe whenever he’s with Zhongli, and Childe knows those eyes—
(it’s been nearly two years since the Rite of Parting and the last time Tartaglia was able to set foot in Liyue. At the Tsaritsa’s biennial masquerade ball, Tartaglia crosses paths with an unexpected guest, and all sorts of long buried sentiment for
ZhongliWangsheng’s consultantLiyue’s archonthis being standing before him comes roaring to the forefront). -
