Summary
The tea that Zhongli pours them is not his usual blend; Hu Tao is concerned about him. Her kindness is a spark of life, a new experience, a breaking of his most comfortable habits. He prefers this attempt over some of her more colourful.
“I see you haven’t redecorated since I was last here.” Miko sounds pleased beneath the judgement, and he wonders whether she, like her Archon, finds comfort in that which is slow to change.
Many years have passed since they last took tea.

Summary
Albedo thinks he's starting to get the hang of their dynamic. He silences Kaeya with a hand to the sternum and directs him to lie wide-eyed back on the table. "Next time, I'll have you against sheets," he says, only belatedly realising both the presumption and intensity of the statement.
Childe whistles again and Albedo shyly smiles.
"Damn, Kaeya, you were right about him."

Line the dominos up differently all you want. If you push them, they will fall.
Powder doesn't come with her sister on their job topside. Jayce and Viktor meet four years earlier.
There will be oil, and there will be fire, and their story will be told regardless.
This is on indefinite hiatus, though if I can ever manage to pick it back up again, I will.

Summary
Within a month, Inazuma is overflowing with once-stifled creativity: art, music, poetry, and fresh ideas that flood the Publishing House queues. From Miko’s point of view, this is proof of a burgeoning market in Inazuma for all that is new—and equally, an opportunity to capitalise on it. She wastes no time, placing bulletins of her own and planting the seeds of a marketing campaign under the guise of a photography contest.
Announcing the Yae Publishing House’s Revolutionary New Project!

Summary
Will should call Hannibal and ask for the last time Hannibal saw him. Except that isn’t exactly a landmine Will’s ready to walk over just yet. No, he should call Alana, but nothing says I want to be your stable boyfriend like I’m either hallucinating or sleeping with someone else.

the dialogue, ust, and stunning depiction of stede's perspective could all have been lifted directly from an episode script, that's how in-character this is

Bookmarker's Notes
the author masterfully emulates the 'edge-of-your-seat' tension that so much of the show's back-and-forth interactions were loaded with, and since it's currently a wip the author also masterfully emulates the uncertainty of the show's canon ending
