Secure. Contain. Protect.

These are the words Zhongli lives by, working his way up the ranks of the SCP Foundation-an organisation dedicated to protecting humanity against anomalous threats. Now a respected researcher, he has spent the past two months as a consultant in Sumeru. His time on his current case at its end, the details of his next assignment arrive: he will relocate to Snezhnaya to assist with the initial analysis of a freshly contained SCP-a creature infused with forbidden energy and an insatiable drive to fight any who dare enter its containment cell.

For a man who has built his career on the principle of protecting humanity, his new assignment will test his resolve as he discovers that there is humanity even in the most monstrous of appearances, and a little monster hidden in the places least expected.

Zhongli a poor man trying everything he can to pay for college, he does the craziest jobs you might think of. But the worst he has might have been working at a stripping bar, lucky it isn't prostitution. Zhongli knew how dangerous those jobs could be, which is why he intends to find a partner as fast as he can, so he can use the "I've got a boyfriend!" Excuse against drunkards. though it's quite the challenge as there aren't a lot of gay people at his college. But his charm may do the work for him this time. Ajax or Childe, you guessed it a rich kid from Snezhnaya had just moved to Liyue only to go to college. He was a model but when he moved to Liyue he quit and decided to start working with something easier to do from a distance. he didn't understand why his mother wanted him to go to college this badly, but anything for his family he has 3 siblings. And after being in Liyue for 2 seconds he already misses them. This guy is quite weird he is super comfortable with his sexuality and absolutely loves doing exotic things that people dare him to do. That's why his best bro is Kaeya. -modern au (gods do not exist here, but the nations do) -mentions of sexual stuff but no sexual stuff -no clue who the artist for the cover is so if you know I appreciate you telling me -other ships may be mentioned -this is a ChiLi/zhongchi fic so don't come at me

Of Calm Calamities by ahyescaffeine

It's been a few weeks since Childe has 'completed' his mission, and yet, he can't convince himself to leave just yet, especially since the Tsaritsa hasn't called him back to Snezhnaya, so he remains in Liyue. He remains in Liyue, where he has friends and coworkers, and most importantly, Zhongli. That is, until it all comes crashing down. Credit to @esqurell on twitter for the cover page

Love Me With Your Sweet Lies [Zhongchili] by xTeaAndSconesx

After Zhongli's identity is revealed to be more than he was led to believe, Childe endeavours to avoid Zhongli for the remainder of his stay in Liyue, and to forget all that passed between them. However, Zhongli refuses to let matters drop quite so easily, insisting on "talking" and "working things out". Why can't things ever be easy? * * * Please note this fic contains BOTH dynamics aka switch. Also unlike my other works it does contain NSFW scenes, so is 18+ only, thanks!

Always and Forever / ZhongChi by aestheticbubbl3s

TW: smut, indications that sex happened, SA, mentions of r@pe, self-harm, and use of the f-slur, if you don't want to read any of this, please don't read my fanfiction. Tartaglia had never been one for romance stories, he'd never imagined he'd find love with someone as out of the ordinary as ex-archon, Zhongli. He certainly never thought that love could be this difficult, it had never been this way in previous relationships, so what was going on with this one? He never knew that love could be so complicated, he grew up with the perfect model of a happily married couple, his parents never fought, so he just couldn't quite figure out why he and Zhongli had trouble not fighting. But even so, he still loved Zhongli with his whole heart, even though he claimed to hate him at times. ⚠️I don't own the cover art!! I tried looking for credit but I found it on google and I couldn't find the credit anywhere, if you know who drew it, please tell me so I can give proper credit!⚠️

As The Sun Gazes Upon The Moon [Zhongchili] by xTeaAndSconesx

Following a malfunction during one of Dottore's experiments, Childe is lost to the Abyss for a week. Summoned to Snezhnaya to assist, Zhongli meets a darker and more tormented Childe than the one who left Liyue only weeks prior, and thus begins his journey to help return Childe to his prior self. Unless, of course, the version of Childe that Zhongli once knew has already been lost to the Abyss' call... Note: This fic's dynamic is Zhongchili, not to be confused with Zhongchi, meaning Zhongli and Childe are top/bot versatile. The art used on the cover was commissioned by me from 1rinchii on Twitter - please do not use / post elsewhere!
