    Summary

    Alhaitham’s agency throws him into a livestream dating show. As expected, he rejects everyone. Rudely.

    “Name a key scientist involved in the laws of thermodynamics.”
    “Newton?”
    “What is your stance on Dialectic of Enlightenment?”
    “Dia-what?”
    “Name a philosopher. As an advantage, a dead one.”
    “...”
    “Next.”

    It shouldn't have been as surprising when someone finally snaps.

    “Do you even know the answers to these questions, or are you just waiting for someone to say Ibn al-Haytham to boost your own ego?”

    Or: The internet is privy to Alhaitham falling in love on camera.

    Summary

    Cyno sighs. "It could be some time until Gandharva Ville is once again suitable for human habitation," he says. "Even once the Ley Lines are repaired, it will take time for the energies at the site to disperse."

    "I have a Vision," Collei says. "I can help."

    Cyno shakes his head. "High concentrations of unguided energies are known to be particularly harmful to post-Eleazar individuals. The protection that your Vision offers would be more than canceled out."

    Collei folds her hands in her lap. "It's my home."

    "I know," Cyno says.

    After Gandharva Ville is attacked, Collei must spend a few weeks living in Alhaitham's house in Sumeru City. It's not what she's used to, but sometimes that's what someone needs to grow.

    Summary

    “I have… Been through a lot.”

    Lumine frowned. “‘A lot’ seems to be a gross understatement. You’re like a walking ball of trauma. Being enslaved and tortured for decades and then losing your whole family and then fighting this endless war, alone, seems to qualify as more than ‘a lot.’ Maybe more like 'constant suffering.'”

    “I have a contract, and it’s my duty and my honor to fulfill that contract. Even now that you defeated Osial, it’s still my job to defend Liyue from the demons that plague it.” Xiao rubbed his Vision between two fingers. “I’m the last defender in this invisible war.”

    “Hm.” Lumine sighed and rested her chin on her palm, looking up at Xiao with big honey-yellow eyes. “Then who will defend you?”

    Xiao's Backstory, from being enslaved and tortured to losing everyone he cares about; and the subsequent Story of how he finds healing in a certain Outlander. Angst ensues and relief follows.

    Summary

    To be entirely fair, Zhongli had planned to fake his death. He would drop a fake Exuvia just as the Qixing called for him during the Rite of Descension, and he would let everything unfold from there.
    That had been the plan. He might’ve started to regret the circumstances, but never the end result. Rex Lapis was meant to die.

    Zhongli wasn’t.

    So why did he?
    And if he did,

    Why was he awake now, somewhere he did not at all recognize?

    --------

    Or, Zhongli not-quite-transmigrates into a modern version of Teyvat and has to figure out why the Zhongli from that universe (whose body he took over) has died, along with other things threatening the nation. With the other Zhongli dead, he's the only Morax left, after all.
    And Morax is duty-bound to protect Liyue.

    Summary

    In which the Harbingers are all meddling uncles and aunties, and Tartaglia is the spoiled baby of the group (whether he likes to admit it or not). As uncles and aunties, how can they not intervene (read: swoop in like overprotective mama and papa bears) when they catch wind that not only is their youngest upset after his Liyue trip, but that the reason he's upset has to do with this mysterious "Mr. Zhongli" of Liyue?
