Summary
"You don't even know me."
"Does that really matter?"
Makoto was quiet again for a while, his eyes falling shut. When he finally turned his gaze on Ryoji again, his expression was cold.
"I'm not sure what about me you find so fascinating," he uttered. "You shouldn't bother sharing so much of yourself with me, Mochizuki. I'll probably make you sad."
Ryoji stared at him wide eyed, his lips parting to speak, but no sound coming out. He felt his heart flutter in his chest again, and he leaned down so that they were eye to eye. Makoto didn't flinch away. He held Ryoji's gaze, challenging him to object. After a moment, Ryoji offered a warm smile.
"I think you have that backwards," he said, his eyes squinting slightly at the corners. "I don't know much, but one thing that I know for certain is that your heart is unbelievably kind."
Makoto's gaze wavered, his breath catching. He let his eyes wander back to the looming silhouette of Tartarus in the distance, and he reached up to brush his bangs from his eyes.
"You don't know anything, then."

Mochizuki Ryoji feels an almost supernatural connection to his dorm mate, Yuuki Makoto. Of course, that's by design.

Summary
A collection of ZhongZi / ChiLi excerpts. Most of these are really short, so don’t be surprised if the word count to chapter ratio is wonky. Some fluff, some angst. Just Childe and Zhongli things.

You Cannot Run From Your Debt by brokemantrash, ParadoxicalSeer

Summary
“I was angry. At first.” He frowned, then turned his gaze away. “But, then I was tired. And now... I’m confused. Shouldn’t I still feel resentful? Shouldn’t I want to kill you? For what you did... I should, and yet that feeling was fleeting. What was left, after that, lingers now.”
He finally leaned forward, his eyes narrowing. He was still emotionally illiterate, even when it came to what he, himself, was feeling. There was an almost naive sort of foreignness to it all— but the ache was not a naive one. It was fiery, and desperate, and perhaps a bit hostile. But Zhongli was nothing, if not practiced in self restraint. His momentary lapse of judgment in the hallway was enough for him.
For now.
