    Summary

    “You’re not…” Childe’s head may have been angled like a baffled puppy, but he couldn’t help it, “Put off by all of that?”

    As the disk of orange dipped below the Liyuan waters and the twilight sky remained illuminated by dusky remnants of what had been, Zhongli’s golden-edged features took on a radiance of their own. It wasn’t the lights playing tricks on him when Childe saw the man’s eyes gleam, and he craved to know what that meant.

    “Perhaps I give you too much credit.” He was smiling, now, and Childe’s breath caught in his throat. That was certainly new. “Maybe you do not listen as much as I thought you do.”

     

    Childe processes just how different Rex Lapis, God of Contracts, and Zhongli, Wangsheng Funeral Consultant, really are.

    They coincide at the worst of times, and it does some truly awful things to his heart.

    Summary

    An idea hit him and Childe hopped to his feet with a grin. “Fine, I’ll prove it to you.”

    This would be a foolproof way to make a point and to prove Lumine wrong. A flawless idea. Probably the best idea he had ever had in his life.

    “I don’t know what you’re planning, Childe,” she said, pulling herself up with the wall and reaching for her sword, “but it’s probably a terrible idea. Seriously, just admit that you like him because it’s obvious to anyone who sees the two of you interact.”

    He spun on his heels and laughed. “So, Lumine, that’s where you’re wrong. I don’t like Zhongli as anything more than a friend, and may Celestia strike me down if I’m lying!”

    Lumine’s face paled and the two of them stood there in silence for a moment, Childe ignoring his totally not rapidly beating heart. He was certain that this would be fine. There was no way he liked Zhongli like that.

    “See, Lumine? I’m just fine—”

    And then the lightning struck.

    Summary

    That bitch stole his fucking fox.

    Ajax was supposed to be dead, yet here he was, very much still alive. Eyes full of years of resentment and loathing, and within his unfamiliar blue eyes, Zhongli had never known daylight to be so violent.

    Summary

    "You seem surprised. Was I not who you expected to see? Or is it that the tea is not to your liking?"

    "Ah, no, sorry. I'm fine." Childe shook his head and took the cup that the man poured him. "As you may know, I'm Childe. I mean, of course, you already knew that. You asked for me. But, ah... I never quite got your name." Calm down, Osial. Ajax. Tartaglia. Whichever part of me is flipping out right now.

    "My name?" The man seemed to think longly, taking a slow sip from his teacup. "My name is Zhongli."

    Osial is back in action, but unfortunately, he's back in action with the Archon who sealed him away for centuries. But said-Archon is hot and absolutely sucks at acting.

     

    or in other words

     

    Childe and Osial are one in the same, so they're both dragged into Zhongli's shenanigans.

    Summary

    The final contract of Liyue. That’s what Rex Lapis had called it.

    An agreement to test his people, to see how they would be able to stand on their own and to allow them to move on from the age of gods and monsters into the dawning age of man. Rex Lapis knew they would be challenged in ways they had never been before, but despite appearances, he would be there to catch them if they fell.

    However, there were things he hadn’t accounted for despite all his careful planning. He had known that the Tsaritsa’s Fatui were sent to cause chaos - that Childe was a Harbinger and therefore would be at the epicentre - but he hadn’t expected this.

    As his ancient foe rose from the depths of the Guyun Stone Forest, the Archon weighed the final contract of Liyue against the first and made his decision.
