His Eyes Never Change (Gold like Cor Lapis, Blue as Noctilucous Jade) by stars_at_dawn

Summary
10/02/2024 - MAJOR EDITS DONE - Guizhong's adeptus form has been changed, previous chapters affected include Chapters 20 and 22
It takes a lot to catch Tartaglia, 11th of the Fatui Harbingers, off guard. Between surviving three months with the monsters of the Abyss at age fourteen, fighting his way up from square one through the ranks of the Fatui to his current position, and maintaining his facade as “The Greatest Toy Salesman in Snezhnaya” in the eyes of his youngest and most mischievous brother; yes, it would take a lot to find him in a truly tight spot.
Waking up in a body that existed nearly 3,700 years ago in the land that had yet to become Liyue? That would be disorienting even for a god. And speaking of gods, the only person he can turn to happens to be one. Here's hoping that the younger Zhongli is as friendly as the one Childe has grown close to.
Arc 1: Dreams, Incense, and the Gods (Ch. 1-13)
Arc 2: Secrets Beneath the Clouds (Ch. 14-23)
Arc 3: Unearthed Truths (Ch. 24-32)
Arc 4: Days of Gold (33-39)
Arc 5: When the Dust Settles (40-???)Featuring some amazing fanart! Credits found in the chapter notes.

Set 65 years after the ending of "The Dragonslayer's Egg"
With 44/60 eggs hatched and another egg on the way, Ajax and Zhongli have their hands full. Many of their children have already left the nest, but there's no end to the chaos in sight. On top of family drama and sibling quarrels, now a certain troublemaker has returned to stir the pot further.

Summary
No Archons. No gnoses or visions. Just magic and dragons.
This is the tale of a Dragonslayer who, by accident, magically fertilizes a dragon's egg. Caught between his duty as a knight and his duty as a parent, Tartaglia decides to raise the egg alongside the dragon who laid it until the day it can be determined whether this half-human, half-dragon child is a threat to humanity or not. Along the way, he is forced to unlearn everything he's been taught about the species he'd dedicated his life to eradicating.
Where all is lost, there is something new to be found. And perhaps he was not the only one who was lost.

Croon For You by ContraryBee

Summary
“Hey, that’s mine nerd, get your hands off it—"
Izuku snaps at Katsuki when he reaches for his hoodies, baring his cute little omega teeth and growling in that tiny, light voice that wasn’t threatening at all.
It still makes Katsuki rip his fingers back out of reach, spine straightening and an odd look cross over his face. Izuku sniffs, unimpressed, and continues into his den, kicking the door closed behind him. Impertinent alpha. The nest wasn’t done. If he knows what’s good for him, he’d stay out of the way until Izuku croons for him.
