Summary
“Sometimes, I think you’re reading my mind when you look at me like that,” Childe says.
Zhongli startles—because he could do that, if he wanted. It is no trouble to peer into a mortal’s mind and read their thoughts like words on a page.
“I wonder what you’d make of my thoughts,” Childe continues, playing with his chopsticks, making them dance across the table as he watches Zhongli. “Would you read my mind if you could, Mr. Zhongli?”
Zhongli uncovers the depths of Childe's desire when he reads Childe's mind.

An Alternative Contract (read: blackmail) by Equinurmae
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
17 Apr 2024

Summary
Two months after the Osial incident, Childe is back in Liyue Harbour, and diplomatic immunity is the only reason he isn't behind bars. Apparently, Keqing is the only one who sees this for the absolutely terrible idea it is, so she takes it into her own hands to... encourage Childe's good behaviour. By blackmailing him. With his feelings for Zhongli.
No, she's not proud of it either. The Yuheng isn't the only one adept at blackmail, though, and when Childe pressures her with photographs of the Rex Lapis shrine in her closet, the two find themselves in the pettiest of stalemates.

Summary
When Lady Ningguang proposes a contest while rebuilding the Jade Chamber, half of Liyue rushes to take part. The winner must bring Sunset Vermillionite, Wonder Cores, and Adepti Sigils. Few people have heard of the first two items, and as for the sigils, it’s hard enough to locate an Adeptus, let alone convince it to give a boon. Who in the world could possibly amass such a huge number of sigils in a short amount of time? …Wait a second.

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.
