    Summary

    “What can you give me, in exchange for not destroying Liyue?” Childe asks, out of curiosity. “If you’re trying to negotiate, you must have some sort of idea.”

    Zhongli’s lips press into a firm line. “Anything else I am able to offer, aside from fighting you, I will consider.”

    It’s an interesting answer. And while Childe mulls it over, his gaze begins to wander: it shifts across Zhongli’s features, as pretty and alluring as they are. Those eyes in all their chiseled gold, the sharp, cutting angles of his jaw… into the swooping curve of Zhongli’s neck, where the rest of it disappears under the collar. Something about it draws a restlessness from Childe, the tips of his fingers starting to buzz with a familiar itch.

    It gives him an idea.

    A bad one, of course, but an idea nonetheless.

    As the First Harbinger, Childe is a dangerous, unpredictable force who lives for the sole pursuit of pleasure. Contracts have always been Zhongli’s method of control, but he may soon find that Childe cannot be so easily contained.
