Summary
Instead of the eccentric, suicidal, brown-eyed detective that picks Atsushi up, it’s a trust-fund yuppie and her concerningly out-of-touch dad that do.
Wherein Hu Tao and Zhongli are fighting (not really) for their lives to get back to their world and adopt a not-quite-there-yet adult while doing it.
… They may have tricked him a little for him to stay but Archons, the guy was all skin and bones!

Summary
Zhongli is ready to retire, he has been for over a century. The Gnosis has other plans, and intervenes as he introduces himself to the Harbinger sent to fulfill his plans/contract with the Tsaritsa.
Childe has no idea what the fuck is going on. One moment he’s going through Liyue customs. The next he’s waking up in the private rooms of a place called ‘Bubu Pharmacy’ with a strange man lying across the room from him. An adeptus with Cor Lapis horns that no one will talk about without asking their permission first.
Ekaterina doesn’t seem worried though, so as he waits for that to resolve itself he’s gotta figure out what to do with the tiny crystal horns sticking out of his own hair.

Summary
In the ghastly mists of Wuwang Hill, two troubled souls cross paths—each trapped by their own failures. The Traveler, a rising legend who has saved Mondstadt and Liyue from crisis, now wanders aimlessly, paralyzed by fear after his sister chose the Abyss Order over him. Hu Tao, an infamous funeral director whose antics have grown from playful to desperate, walks further down the wrong path every day, unable to turn back. When their fateful meeting—born from a search for a deceased person—draws them together, what begins as a seemingly lighthearted tale of friendship and regret soon unravels into a thrilling mind game of life and death, where defeat comes not only from your enemy’s brilliance, but from the flaws you refuse to face.
What neither realizes is that this chance encounter will become the turning point of their lives, forging a bond that will carry them through battle, heartbreak, and a love worth fighting for—just as Paimon once joked, sometimes the real treasure on hopeless hills is what you find together.

Summary
"Xiao let a heartbeat of silence fall over them, his next words slow and deliberate, "'Loved' is an understatement." A faux chuckle left his throat before he could stop it, "I do not think that any creature–be it divine or mortal–could ever comprehend what he felt for Ajax."
"All I know is that it was something far stronger than love.""

Summary
This is not what he had planned. In no way whatsoever did Zhongli want this to happen. This was an invasion of privacy on so many levels. Watching Childe become this stressed every day and Zhongli couldn't say anything or do anything to relieve his worries. This was torture of the highest form. Alas, as stated before, he couldn’t do anything and that could not be helped. Not for another two weeks or so by his count and past experiences.
His instincts were only just beginning to let up after that grave injury. Azhdaha got a good hit on him when he was fighting him. It took all he had to stay neutral for the Traveler so they didn’t catch on. After they had left, he made it to the harbor as close as he dared before his instincts kicked in and he switched forms to recover.
Then Childe found him and things spiraled out of control. It all started like this…

Summary
"Rain cascaded off the rooftop, droplets ricocheting off shingles and mimicking the sounds of thunder. The sky was a deep, hazy red, supposedly painted with the blood of the fallen. At least, that's what Zhongli believed."

Summary
Hu Tao accepts most people's annoyance toward her with all of the ease her well-developed self-confidence offers.
It rarely happens that she is bothered by anyone's anomacity, that is until she falls for a god she doesn't believe to be one.

Summary
After the whole Rex Lapis thing, lets say Zhongli and Childe's friendship isn't on the best road. Can they ever be the same again? Will Childe even talk to him again? Zhongli doesn't know, what he does know that he may or may have fallen for him.

Summary
Though the former Archon was thousands of years old, he had almost no knowledge regarding the offspring of someone like him. Sure, there were some examples of human-adeptus hybrids in history, like Ganyu and Yanfei, but Zhongli was the Prime Adeptus. And his husband was very much a human male, nothing like the women who birthed the other half-adepti. The gears in his head began to turn as he thought about all of this, trying to wrack his brain for any examples in the past that might be a suitable comparison for his current situation.

Summary
Zhongli was so very tired. He had fulfilled his contract and left the Northland Bank, seeking out a quiet mountain area to sit and collect himself. He was already exhausted without the energy from a Gnosis he had held for millennium, and even more distressed from the revelations of Childe in the bank. It was only natural that he was startled when someone approached from behind and began to speak.
How Zhongli and Childe's relationship somewhat starts.

Summary
Different characters experiences with Zhong and Childe, mostly 3rd wheeling/PDA humour, inappropriate jokes. I think you get it ;)
It will be a different character each chapter
1: Hu Tao. Zhongli living on the apartment on top of the funeral parlour is something Hu Tao never thought would cause any issues, she was right. She could deal with randomly seeing a silhouette with horns and a tail, glowing eyes the only detail she could see in the darkness thanks to their glow. She could handle it when her gods body came crashing down, her reaction helped by the fact she knew that said god was alive and well, it did make her worry for what was to come though..
And then Osial happened, she wasn't fine. A fatui harbinger was yelling top secrets no one should ever know in a rage on her top floor, she wasn't fine. Said fatui harbinger started staying over, she was more fine, if she found good enough ear muffs.
2: The liyue Qixing
3: The adepti
4: Thoma/Inazuma -
