Summary
Trouble never seemed far off when Childe was around. For the most part, Lumine didn't mind that. Kept things interesting, for sure. Usually, their mutual brand of mayhem looked like epic battles against hilichurls and eldritch horrors from Abyss. But the moment Childe sheepishly croaked out "my parents think we're dating," Lumine just knew that they had stumbled head first into a new form of danger. Sadly, this one wasn't one they could stab their way out of.
Though frankly if this fake dating thing didn't go well, Lumine wasn't above trying it.
(Featuring Tartaglia and Lumine in A Comedy of Errors in Three and some odd Acts.)

Summary
Such a tender heart, beneath it all. Morax wonders at it – that a creature so fundamentally gentle could survive something so fundamentally cruel.
“In the fables of another world,” Morax murmurs, “the name Xiao is that of a spirit who encountered great hardship. He endured much suffering, as you have.” His thumb brushes beneath Alatus’s eye, catching the tear before it can fall. “Use this name from now on.”
A story about love, devotion, and vulnerability, told in six parts. Or, five lessons Zhongli learns from Xiao during their thousands of years at each other's sides, and one lesson Xiao learns from him.

Summary
"This way," Morax says. His hand is on Xiao's elbow, steering him. Xiao watches the uneven path down to the riverbank and tries not to stumble.
Morax brings him to a flat rock at the water's edge and sits him down on it, then kneels in the water in front of him. He washes the blood and soot from Xiao's skin with his own hands.

Summary
[Long ago, when Dimitri was young and empty, he liked dancing. Dancing was like a duel if a duel was a collaboration. It was sparring in concert. He enjoyed moving to the rhythm of the music, enjoyed when he and his partner got it just right together, enjoyed watching the lines of dancers at balls and his parents dance alone in the royal quarters, steps slow and synchronized. Had loved dancing with El--
After the Tragedy, there was no room for it in him. It was frivolous and useless and he had always been clumsy without a weapon in his hands because he’d never been good for anything else, because Blaiddyds were bred for the battlefield and not the ballroom.]

Summary
There was more to the contract than a gnosis and test of Liyue. It seemed like a simple deal five hundred years ago: so long as Morax never had a soulmate, the Tsaritsa would never harm Liyue and she would not get his gnosis. But the moment he gained a soulmate, all that belonged to him was forfeit. He thought the deal left Liyue safe—he'd lived thousands of years without a soulmate. The Tsaritsa would be dead and gone by the time she'd have a chance to collect.
Five hundred years later, Childe appears in Liyue, Zhongli gains a soulmate mark, and everything falls apart.
(The obligatory soulmate AU, featuring a Zhongli with trauma, an oblivious Childe, and demon-worshipping cultists.)
[Sequel abandoned.]

Summary
“My name is Diluc,” he says. A scowl naturally furrows his brow, and Kaeya looks like he wants to laugh.
He’s looking at him through his lashes again, blue eyes teasing and warm. “Diluc,” he says. “A knight in overalls isn’t quite where I thought my preferences would lie, but here we are.”
(or: Kaeya loses his memories and makes some assumptions. Diluc can't honestly tell him that he's wrong.)

Summary
Zhang Chengling knows he hasn’t been dealt the best hand in life, but he’s content where he is now. Living with Zhou Zishu is comforting in a way Chengling cannot describe and could not have imagined back when he was still being shuffled from uncle to uncle. He’s comfortable here--happy, even.
Chengling doesn’t have much to complain about these days. In fact, the only issue troubling him is the increasingly evident realization that his adoptive father’s house husband is an actual mobster.

Still, no matter what oddities went on in Kakashi's head, one thing is certain – the boy will always love his father, through thick and thin.

Summary
In the first days of Zagreus's tutelage, Achilles is still full of wrath more than anything. His bitterness toward the gods is untempered, and before him stands one of their scions, vulnerable and yet immortal, able to take however much he chooses to dish out.
(Or, perhaps, not so immortal after all. And in the end, very vulnerable indeed.)

Summary
Wei Wuxian kneels by his bed for hours upon hours. He stays there until his knees go numb. Jiang Cheng awake and Jiang Cheng asleep are barely different at all, but Wei Wuxian pays close attention so he knows when to be silent and when he can whisper quiet things while Jiang Cheng is deaf to the world. He kneads Jiang Cheng’s hand, trying to draw life back into the lax fingers.
“I won’t leave you, don’t worry,” he says. “Madame Yu made me kneel so often the skin of my knees is tougher than wood, you see? Wei Wuxian could crawl over hot coals for his bravest Shidi and not even feel it.”
