    Summary

    Alatus was a bird with clipped wings, abused and tortured by the goddess of dreams.
    Until one day a certain god of contracts slays the cruel goddess and gives alatus a new name, a new identity, a new purpose.

    Alatus did not think much of it. All gods were cruel after all, it did not matter which god he served.

    He definitely did not expect to gain a new perspective of this endless life of his, not to mention a somewhat chaotic self-made family and perhaps a gentle lover?

    Or: A long winded Xiao/Zhongli fic with found family and lots of angst on the side~

    Summary

    They call him a king when he brings the rain, and a monster when he leaves husks in his wake. Bound by golden bangles and a binding contract that tastes of ash, the Golden-Winged King serves a mistress who harvests souls to fuel her throne. But when his path crosses the territory of the Lord of Rock, the masks begin to slip. A retelling of Xiao’s history, where the line between guardian and ghoul is written in the bitter taste of stolen memories.

    To summarize this story in a short sentence: "Thus I have really destroyed my enemies, for I have converted them unto my friends." A proverb attenuated to various wise rulers over the ages, then to Abraham Lincolin.

    Summary

    Hu Tao is sent on a mission to endear herself to the young man who lives on Wangshu Inn.

    (Spoiler: She passes with flying colours.)


    Zhongli shakes his head. “You are not to go beyond the Inn. You will give this box to the chef, and you will convince the young man who lives there to take you under his wing–” He clears his throat, to cover up a hopefully unnoticed slip of tongue. “As a disciple. And you will not travel beyond the Inn alone until he is satisfied that you can protect yourself.”
