Summary
Lonely data analyst Zhongli has little to look forward to in life. His job is monotonous, his dreams have fallen apart, and his coworkers either overlook or take advantage of him. When he dies in a sudden accident, it is simply one more unfair event.
But then, impossibly, he awakens in a new world, where the colours are brighter and the air is sweeter, and perhaps he can have a second chance.
There is the small matter of the body he is occupying, and where the original owner might have gone...

Fans of the popular “Adventurer Ajax” comics are queuing up at bookstores across Teyvat. A special issue was just released, focusing on Ajax’s trusted companion! Originally the winning entry from a fan-created character contest, the lovely funeral consultant has become a fan favourite. Readers cannot wait to learn his backstory!
Meanwhile, Zhongli has been having some odd encounters of late. Why do strangers keep mistaking him for someone called “Zhengliang”?

Summary
Hu Tao shields against the sun with a palm, her hand swallowing it up whole from its perch in the sky, the highest it will get today. It is only when the procession is entirely out of sight, that she holds out to him, with little ceremony, a kongming lock, fingers locked between the pieces jutting out.
Ancient Liyueans — well into the Late Archonian era; those strange millennia where there was a universal acceptance in Teyvat a seven-deity pantheon, despite the cultural and geographical distance between all nations — did revere a god of stone, but he had never heard of offerings made to him in his own element.
A luxury good, perhaps, like those old Fontainen manuscripts, inked by hand, all unique in their make, prized over the uniformity of the printing press for it — ?
This is the mark of our pledge, and it is also my challenge to you.
Zhongli blinks.
(Or: Orphan-with-mysterious-origins Zhongli, born and raised in Sumeru, and dreaming of Liyue from afar, finally gets a homecoming. With it come many questions, a kongming lock, and an adventure that might change the course of his life.)

Bookmarker's Notes
Incredibly cinematic, yet charming in its depiction of a more romantic age. The writing draws you into this reimagined version of Teyvat, in a time of exploration and adventure. I'm very much looking forward to what happens next.

Summary
After the battle with Osial, Zhongli believed his troubles had finally ended. Then he opened his door to find Tartaglia in his monstrous form, and the grievance burning in that single eye told him — more plainly than any reproach in six thousand years ever had — that they were far from over.

It's a reconciliation fic with a twist - Childe is trapped in his Foul Legacy Transformation. The author uses this set-up to explore Childe's backstory and relationships, including the all-important one with Zhongli. Really looking forward to seeing how this develops.

Summary
“Tartaglia,” Zhongli says gently, returning to his younger companion’s side. “Do you require assistance?”
“Wuh?” The computer science major spills out lamely, legs quivering beneath him as he tries to maintain a firm stance. “No, Sensei, I’m fine!” He laughs, fingers returning to grip at the board that surrounds the rink. “Are you sure this is your first time skating?”
Zhongli nods once, firm. He’s barely deterred. “I believe so.”

Loved this. It's a time capsule, an old fic written in late 2020 that the author found and chose to share, and it captures something from the Covid lockdown at the time. People were afraid, and trying to find joy in simple things...hoping for a future where they might once again go out in public, and have waffles together, and go skating. But because of that simplicity, there's a timelessness to it as well. Such a lovely fic.

Summary
After being dumped by the pretty geology graduate, Ajax thinks his love life couldn't get any worse. That is, until said geology graduate gets himself murdered and starts haunting him. Oh, and Ajax is also the primary suspect in his murder, so he'll have to work together with his dead not-quite-ex to solve the mystery of his death before it's too late.
Great. Just great.

Bookmarker's Notes
This fic nails the urban fantasy vibe. Entwined in the mystery and the central love story is a gritty exploration of Liyue's reverence for its god. "Tradition is peer pressure from dead people," indeed... It gets seriously dark at times - mind the tags - with twists and turns and a hard-won ending. Well worth the read.

Summary
“My Eleventh.” Her tone softened. “You understand, then, what I am asking of you? This operation will not be easy, nor will it be quick.“
All too well, as Tartaglia had never been known as one to accept the easiest option, anyway.
“I understand, Your Majesty. Your will is mine.”
~
After a career-ending injury, Tartaglia, the Eleventh Harbinger, is sent to Liyue under the guise of a new concubine within the Imperial Harem to investigate the rumors of an assassination plot against the Emperor. Fighting off assassins, he could do, but pretending to be a concubine? Not so much.

Bookmarker's Notes
While this isn't an isekai fic, it has a similar feel, what with Childe ending up in a cdrama setting but absolutely refusing to submit to any of the usual tropes. This is primarily a comedy, but there is genuine plot and characterisation, the antagonists are nuanced, and the author handles a large supporting cast with skill. I'm glad this is still ongoing because it means there'll be more.
