    Summary

    The parlour is quiet, the funeral just as empty.

    The last time they met was at Liuli Pavillion. Zhongli remembers a fleeting touch, a promise of again. Then Childe leaves on a cold, wet Sunday evening, and dies without so much as leaving a word for the dear consultant he'd left behind.

    Or, a god in the aftermath of a harbinger's death.

    Summary

    Zhongli forgot his wallet.

    It is a shame that, as per Snezhnayan etiquette, Ajax was going to pay for the two of them anyway.

    Debts are always good for business.


    Snapshots of Childe's time in Liyue and his growing relationship with a certain funeral consultant.

    Summary

    An accidental magical bonding isn't how Childe wanted to become a father, but parents don't really get to choose their children, do they? He's only giving up a year of his life, just until the baby can bond with her birth father, but it's still a year of his life. Besides, he and Zhongli aren't on the best of terms--not any more--and now, they're stuck raising a baby together. It's alright, though. It has to be. And all he has to do is not get attached.

    (Aka: Childe accidentally bonds himself to a baby adeptus, tries not to get attached, and then gets very attached.)

    Summary

    “Are you a Sentinel?” he blurts, before remembering Skirk's reticence to questions.

    She doesn’t stop moving, but she does glance at him from the corner of her eye.

    “No,” she says. “But you are a Guide.”

    Ajax blinks, faltering. The woman does not stop there.

    “You have also been blessed by Celestia. That Vision was next to you when I found you. To come into both blessings while in the Abyss.” She pauses. “You’re either extremely fortunate, or perhaps extremely cursed.”

    “A Guide?” Ajax’s brow furrows. “No, I must be a Sentinel.”

    ------
    Ever since Ajax was young, he has dreamed of being a Sentinel like his father. With heightened senses and strength, he could easily be a renowned adventurer, able to make a name for himself.

    Life does not quite work out that way.

    Summary

    Maybe it's the little girl whose disappearance turned into a murder, and whose murder turned into a cold case, and who has now apparently decided to move in with him. Maybe it's the unacceptable hole left in his life when his dumb best friend and partner in (the prevention of) crime decided to go and get himself killed. Maybe it's his brother, whose high-profile career and fantastic girlfriend and first-child-on-the-way are steadily leaving Dean in the dust. Pick one. Pick all of them. The why doesn't matter so much as the what, and the what is this: Dean is pretty sure he's going completely, certifiably insane. Sure, he hasn't started wearing all his clothes inside out, and he still showers on a regular basis (anyways, that's not crazy, just a little eccentric); but there's no getting around the fact that he just threw away his life, his career, and his reputation by dragging out his mom's old necromancy book and summoning a Class A Forbidden Entity to his attic. A cranky one, too. With horrendous bed-head.
