Growing Up From Ajax

Tartaglia has fought for so long to protect the childhood imagery within his younger brothers mind, but when all the lies finally make their way to Teucer, that picture of the sweet, perfect and good older brother is destroyed. Tartaglia can only imagine how this has ruined yet another childhood.
He begins to think back on his own childhood - or lack thereof - and comes to realise that Tartaglia, Childe and the Eleventh Fatui Harbinger are completely different people to the child that was Ajax.
Ajax was left in the abyss in order for Tartaglia - the perfect version of himself - to exist, and yet, all Tartaglia can do, is long to switch places with his young self.
Based off @sopsimegistus's AU idea where Childe sings "Running Up That Hill" by Kate Bush.

Look Me in the Eyes (and tell me that it's me) [Zhongchili]
Final year university student Ajax dreads graduating. A lifetime of sitting in a shitty office at a shitty computer, making shitty cups of tea for his shitty coworkers is his last idea of fun. But when he (quite literally) runs into the mysterious, handsome Zhongli who-lucky him-agrees to a date, he's gifted a Vision-an ancient artifact from an era long since passed. With the Vision in his possession, he begins to recover memories of a past life of exhilarating battles and heroic deeds, propelling him into a lifestyle of delivering justice to Snezhnaya's streets, slamming down would-be criminals with a well-placed fist to the face. However, when these memories begin to take a darker turn, Ajax starts to question who he really was, and what these memories mean for who he is today.

A Call From the Future | Tartaglia x child!reader |
Time travel. This enigma has been a concept known to be both a wonder and a curse. For it is in the past and will forever be in the past. For some, the future is inevitable as the present is difficult to live through. But things happen... things that people were never meant to experience. Y/n learned it in a very strange way. By meeting the younger version of her father. In a place she knows but doesn't entirely recognize. In a time of the past that she never learned from. And with a person she longed to meet once more. Someone she knew and trusted with her whole being and life, but who is someone who doesn't know of her at all. Not this time.
