    Summary

    After the romantic poetics, then came the reality of dirty dishes stacked in short towers by the sink, books written in Liyuen and Snezhnayan alike scattered amongst half-finished cups of tea, polished brick clay next to a well-traveled samovar. On the floor, a lone sock and brown necktie escaped from their shared laundry basket. Such was the state of his current life.

    The detritus of domesticity, Zhongli rejoiced in the things that didn’t belong to him; revealing how one might live, their identities in slow revelation, ambiguous and tellingly intimate, and even so, Tartaglia still chose to share it with him.

    Zhongli and Childe navigate the beginnings of their new relationship, revealing more about themselves, and all that it entails.

    [Set after Phantom Lines, but can be read as a stand-alone]
