The Thrill of It All | ✓ by hannahlizwrites

A prequel to the screenplay, "The Blue Herring", written by myself in 2018. However, this short story can also stand on its own. (I recommend reading the screenplay first.) ---------------------------------------------------- 18 y/o Lionel Enright, having recently graduated as Valedictorian of his high school class, is self-considered a misfit of sorts. However, he has never been let down by his incredible intellect. Others know this as well--including the members of his town's skillfully concealed criminal alliance, Decadent. Being a young, clever lad whose name is scarcely known in his hometown of New Haven, Connecticut, he is the perfect contender for induction. In other words, their ideal new recruit. For all of his life, Lionel has never been a trouble-maker; not once a delinquent, a hot-head, or a player of any kind. However, Decadent has been known to change people--to change their paradigm and how they view themselves and the world around them. It has also been known that after a while, those members who were hesitant will no longer want to leave. In other words, as time carries on, they eventually come to enjoy the thrill of it all.

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!

Not so lifeless anymore, eh? by Seikatsu_Myujirou

emotionless Tartaglia x Zhongli who tries to help him express himself and get a life. Or, Tartaglia has been weighed down from the past since the beginning, Zhongli has to teach him how to feel again (and get a life!!). Also, a heads up, Childe isn't mute in this story. He just doesn't talk like that one quiet kid- There are spoilers in this fanfic btw. More specifically, the archon quest in Liyue. Aka the "Farewell, Archaic Lord" quest and "A/The new star approaches.
