How to Court a Fatui Harbinger (Like a Dragon Would) by the_untamed_poet25

Summary
There comes a moment in every dragon’s unnaturally long life where they decide, against all wisdom, against millennia of stoic solitude, against the soft hiss of slumbering tectonic plates that beg do not, do not, do not—
to fall in love.Zhongli has already lived through three mortal epochs and a dozen minor heartbreaks, a handful of cataclysmic betrayals, and once, a rather distressing culinary incident involving Sumeru spices and a brass teapot. He has watched civilizations rise and crumble like sandcastles abandoned by impatient gods. He has kissed emperors with ash still cooling in their mouths. He has forgotten entire dialects of love.
But this one—
Tartaglia. The Eleventh Harbinger. Fatui dog. That insufferable ginger menace who insists on calling him “xiansheng” while disarming hilichurls with a grin that belongs on wanted posters and in back-alley sonnets.
This one, Zhongli decides, is worth the return of rituals.
In which Zhongli confuses “romantic gestures” with “terrifying declarations of eternal possession,” and Childe is into it anyway.

Summary
Now, Childe wasn’t saying he had a thing for dragons.
But he had, that night, in the privacy of his Liyue apartment (with Zhongli staying over, of course, because “it is impolite to sleep alone, my dear”), turned to his notebook and scribbled in large, spidery handwriting:
PROS OF DATING A DRAGON:
Sexy voice.
Literal god. Will protect me from death and taxes.
Has a hoard. Probably full of rare artifacts, bones, and tea.
Tail.
And underneath, in much bolder, much more desperate handwriting:
FUCKING TAIL.
In which Childe awakens his inner dragon simp and Zhongli regrets having ears.

Summary
Durin has learnt a lot about "courting" and "romance" from observing humans. He still doesn't really understand much, but according to his observations, he definitely thinks there's something "going on" between Albedo and Wanderer. Durin decides it's up to him to do something about it, and begins his great undertaking of a certain task he's heard of: the art of "match making".
Albedo was speechless for a moment before finally speaking up. “Durin,” he asked nicely, “just how many people did you ask about this?”
Wanderer watched with apprehension as Durin mentally counted on his fingers, distinctly feeling the physical sensation of a rock dropping into his stomach, as Durin’s two hands ran out of fingers and he had to start fresh on his left hand once again.
“You know what? Don’t answer that. Don’t answer that question.” Wanderer snapped.
