    Summary

    Kaveh overheard Alhaitham's confession when he was drunk, but the scribe is under the impression that he doesn't remember. Which means Kaveh would have to confess first. But was he going to do such a thing?

    Absolutely not!

    His pride was on the line here, so he would do the next best thing. Trick Alhaitham into confessing once again!

    Unfortunately, Alhaitham has the same idea as Kaveh...Who will win this game of pride?

    Summary

    “By order of the Liyue Qixing, all members of the Fatui who are non-essential to the day-to-day operations of Northland Bank are to leave Liyue by the end of the month.

    Please note: Harbingers do not qualify as essential staff.”

    The only thing more difficult than completing a mission in a nation where Childe is hated, is completing a mission in a nation where he’s being threatened with imminent deportation.

    Out of alternatives and with failure not an option, the only way he can hope to remain in Liyue is by entering a relationship with one of its residents. He can think of only one person eccentric enough to go along with such a suggestion.

    OR: The inherent awkwardness of undertaking a secret mission while falling in love with the guy you’re fake dating for your residency permit.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    beautifully written! i adore the dynamic between childe and zhongli and how they bounce off each other's banter, the writing flows naturally and doesn't stray from canon lore (i srsly love when they remain true to the events but ofc add the fanfic's storyline)! the chasm being an integral part of this story is also rlly interesting as it also helps flesh out tartaglia more and add to his family man personality!

    final rating: 9/10, point taken bc it made me sad :'(

    Summary

    For eighteen years, Aether has stayed safely in his tower with Paimon, a wisp that Mother had found for him. For eighteen years, he has dreamed about what the outside world might be like, only ever getting the barest glimpses through the books Mother brings him. For eighteen years, he has been told that there are evil people in the outside world, evil people that would do unspeakable things to him if he were ever to leave.

    And then, one day, one of them is suddenly climbing through the window of the tower, brandishing an axe.

    Summary

    "Welcome to a new user experience! You have triggered this interface with the keywords, ‘Stupid game! Stupid devs! I want my f*****g money back!’ You are now bound to the character Tartaglia, the Eleventh Harbinger of the Fatui, codename: Childe! We hope you have an enjoyable user experience and we welcome you once again to Genshin Impact 2.0!”

    Those are some of the first words Ajax, starving college student extraordinaire, has the misfortune of hearing upon waking up in a brave new world from what he's fairly sure is a very fatal accident involving water and a shit ton of electricity.

    Okay, so he's not dead. That's good. But what's this about him being stuck playing the character Tartaglia? Tartaglia, as in the no-good, one-dimensional, cartoonish villain who met his untimely, gruesome death in the first act of the original game?

    Forget this. Like hell Ajax is going to share that fate.

    And so begins one man's journey to save himself from his awful destiny.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    AMAZINGLY formatted and written. A different perspective on Yae Miko's character. This fanfic honestly made me change the way I thought about her, the irrationality behind her coy attitude and words really shines through in this.

    rating: 10/10
