10/02/2024 - MAJOR EDITS DONE - Guizhong's adeptus form has been changed, previous chapters affected include Chapters 20 and 22

It takes a lot to catch Tartaglia, 11th of the Fatui Harbingers, off guard. Between surviving three months with the monsters of the Abyss at age fourteen, fighting his way up from square one through the ranks of the Fatui to his current position, and maintaining his façade as "The Greatest Toy Salesman in Snezhnaya" in the eyes of his youngest and most mischievous brother; yes, it would take a lot to find him in a truly tight spot.

Waking up in a body that existed nearly 3,700 years ago in the land that had yet to become Liyue? That would be disorienting even for a god. And speaking of gods, the only person he can turn to happens to be one. Here's hoping that the younger Zhongli is as friendly as the one Childe has grown close to.

Arc 1: Dreams, Incense, and the Gods (Ch. 1-13)
Arc 2: Secrets Beneath the Clouds (Ch. 14-23)
Arc 3: Unearthed Truths (Ch. 24-32)
Arc 4: Days of Gold (33-39)
Arc 5: When the Dust Settles (40-???)

Seven Months in Heaven [Zhongchi/Tartali] by xTeaAndSconesx

For Childe, the only thing more difficult than completing a mission in a nation where he's hated, is completing a mission in a nation where he's being threatened with imminent deportation. Out of alternatives and with failure not an option, the only way he can hope to remain in Liyue is by entering a relationship with one of its' residents. He can think of only one person eccentric enough to go along with such a suggestion. OR: The inherent awkwardness of undertaking a secret mission while falling in love with the guy you're fake dating for your residency permit. Cover art commissioned from 1ss1k1_gn on Twitter!

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.

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!
