    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.

    Summary

    “I have brought you qingxin,” Zhongli said, holding out a neatly bundled bouquet of pale flowers. “It symbolizes purity of intent and enduring affection.”

    Childe blinked.

    Then blinked again.

    Then squinted.

    “…Are you proposing?”

    Zhongli did not blink. “I am courting you.”

    “Courting? What is this, the Stone Age?”

    “No,” Zhongli said with all the weight of geological certainty, “this is Liyue.”

    In which Childe wants to bone, Zhongli wants to court, and somehow it works out.

    Summary

    It wasn’t just the horns (which were sharp, curved, and hotter than they should legally be), or the tail (which he might have asked to use once or twice, shut up), or the claws (that traced his ribs with agonizing care).
    It was the way Zhongli held him like something fragile. As if the dragon in him was real, but so was the man.

    “I am ancient,” Zhongli whispered one night, voice low, curled around Childe in a nest of golden scales and silk sheets. “I am not built to love like mortals do. But I would burn this world if you asked me to.”

    Childe blinked. “Okay but like. Let’s not burn things.”

    “I could just maim a few people.”

    “No.”

    “A minor geological catastrophe.”

    “Zhongli.”

    “I’ll write you a poem instead.”

    In which Zhongli forgets how to human and Childe forgets how to breathe.

    Summary

    But what he could not—would not—refused to endure any longer was this: the audacity, the blasphemy, the absolute Geo-infused gall of one Zhongli, former God of Contracts, not realizing they were dating.

    They had shared tea. Multiple times.

    They had shared a hot pot meal. One that Childe had cooked with his own two battle-scarred hands. (Sure, Zhongli spent most of the time politely explaining Liyue’s ancient cutlery customs while Childe accidentally set a napkin on fire, but that was domestic as hell, right?)

    They had gone shopping together. Okay, yes, Zhongli picked out everything and Childe paid for all of it. But that’s just what boyfriends do. Everyone knows you’re not officially in love until your partner spends your entire life savings on gilded tea trays and ceremonial funeral bells.

    It was textbook romance. Except one small issue.

    Zhongli. Had. Not. Gotten. The. Memo.

    Or, Zhongli is a 6,000-year-old oblivious romantic, and Childe is a war criminal with feelings.

    Summary

    The first time Zhongli witnesses Childe in his natural habitat—dripping in scandal and surrounded by too many admirers to be decent—he sighs so deeply that the ocean levels may have shifted in response.

    The second time, Childe grinds against him in a Liyue alleyway, all feral grins and murmured filth, and Zhongli, who has endured millennia of warfare and cataclysm, is forced to admit he might not survive this.

    The third time, well—

    “Zhongli, babe, you’re looking at me like I’m a half-priced artifact set and I just wanna say—I’m flattered, really—but let’s be real, if you wanted a piece, you could’ve just said so,” Childe purrs, leaning against a pillar in the Wangshu Inn, shirt unbuttoned to the fourth degree of depravity.

    A lesser man would combust. Zhongli, refined and ancient, merely blinks. “A piece of what, exactly?”

    In which Childe learns that wooing an Archon is harder than expected—and being wooed by one is worse.

    Summary

    Neuvillette's coworker, Furina, has set him up on a blind date, much against his will.

    Neuvillette has only been told that this man is a human- odd, since, in his experience, humans don't tend to associate with magic or the users thereof- but that is to be expected of a blind date, is it not? That was the whole point; mystery.

    Neuvillette doesn't really like that.
    It's not like he can say no, though. Furina will never let him hear the end of it if he doesn't at least go through the motions.

    Except the man he's been set up on this blind date with is... Breathtaking. He's tall, his sharp features rounded by the soft sweater he's wearing. As soon as Neuvillette steps up to greet him- as soon as he hears that deep, rich voice- he knows forgetting is out of the question.

    Summary

    As Kaveh inspects the space that is about to become his new home, he thinks to himself that the room with those marbled counters and a familiar set of wood utensils hanging on the wall. In fact, when he squints closer, he recognizes the model of the stand mixer that’s sitting in the corner. It almost looks like—

    “My name is Al-Haitham,” the man—Al-Haitham, apparently—says, and Kaveh looks at him, looks at the chest that he vaguely recognized, turns to look at the counters that he now pinpoints from motherfucking YouTube, and fully lets his jaw drop again with no regard for propriety.

    Fuck first impressions. It seems that they’ve already had theirs.

    “No the fuck you aren’t,” Kaveh says.

    Kaveh moves into the house of his archnemesis. And then he bakes for him, as one does for their mortal enemy that they definitely don't have a crush on.

    Summary

    "That sounds more like love to me," Lambad says nonchalantly.

    Kaveh points at him accusingly. "It is not love, it is turmoil. I am in turmoil."

    Kaveh turns to Al-Haitham then, and part of him visibly softens at the sight. "Well, maybe part of it is love," he concedes. "I'm in love with you, Al-Haitham, did you know that?"

    Al-Haitham, despite himself, smiles. It makes Kaveh's eyes widen. "I do know that, Kaveh. You told me a few nights ago, do you remember?"

    "I think so."

    "Good. Then you should remember that I told you to tell me that when you're sober, and maybe then I'll say it back."

    Kaveh squints at him. "'Maybe?' What do you mean by 'maybe?' I have changed my mind. You are a bastard, and I am not in love with you."

    There is no winning with Kaveh. But maybe, there is no losing either.

     

    In which Kaveh keeps drunkenly confessing to Al-Haitham.

    Kaveh shrugs, “This man,” he spits out with disdain like the words burned him, pointing in Alhaitham’s face, “said that because of my ‘money problem’ that I could help pay my way of the rent in a different way-“

    “I never said that-“

    “-which is basically asking me to suck his dick,” Kaveh finishes. Tighnari blinks and Cyno bites his cheek to suppress a laugh.

     

    Or, Kaveh and Alhaitham cannot keep it in their pants, and Tighnari suffers because of it.
