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
If one makes a mistake, then one should ask for an apology.
"But is it really that simple?"
It's been more than a year since Tartaglia left Liyue, and Zhongli finally decided to search after him in hopes for reconciliation. But things happened and now he finds himself living with Tartaglia's younger siblings Tonia, Anthon, and Teucer, who not only teach him how to live as a mortal, but also show him another side of Tartaglia he has yet to know.
This is a story of a former Archon trying to (re)learn how to be a human as he navigates his days surrounded by three children.

Summary
You may find time is too relentless to control and you cannot change your role.
Zhongli’s expression is painfully gentle. It sends a flutter through his chest that anyone would look at the bloodthirsty Harbinger like that. He is silhouetted beautifully by the golden light. A golden prince for a golden city.
“They say that souls never truly die. One day we might be so lucky to meet old friends again. Perhaps those we cared for most will find us again and we might learn the foundations of our friendship once more. I always thought time a relentless enemy but maybe time gifts us these moments of joy as well.”
The hero Ajax walked the lands of Teyvat and his legend shaped the future. Heroes die but legends live forever. Their names are passed on, one generation after another. Those who bear the names of heroes are forced to confront the legacy they inherit.
Childe grows up in the shadow of his namesake and rises to meet the challenge of legend.

Summary
When Zhongli looks at him, there is something fundamentally jarring about the way he looks at him. He looks at him like he's rapture, like something made for vagabonds and thieves during times of war. He looks at him like how he looks at archives, a bone-deep affection that runs deeper than just the memory of a god.
This is how Childe knows they've made a mistake - that through their lying stupid deal, he finds himself too deep. That he should have known that with the risks of dealing with a god, is making him a believer in the first place
Before Osial, Childe makes a deal with an Archon: keep their positions a secret and they’ll give each other what they want. Childe wants to finish his mission. Zhongli wants… whatever the hell he wants. Childe would have figure it out long ago if the damn dragon wasn't so obstinate.
Except the longer the charade goes, the less Childe understands. Zhongli seems to want something, but he also wants Childe. This is impossible because Childe is not available. He is not lovable.
A Harbinger can only be a sinner and a God their judgement. He shouldn't want anything else. But what if he does?

(partial)godhood go to his head.Series
