Summary
"The gods are not kind. But if you pray, if you plead, and if your heart is honest, they may grant you one wish. If not, then pray harder. For that is the only way you will escape their wrath."
***
Childe wasn't looking at Zhongli. He was staring into the glowing eyes of Rex Lapis, the one who lifted Liyue's mountains and carved its hills, the one who slaid thousands of gods and humans in his conquests of the Archon Wars, the one who was unforgiving, merciless, and most of all, spoke with enough rage to make the earth tremble beneath them.
"Childe of the Fatui," Rex Lapis rumbled, and Childe couldn't move, couldn't breathe as the Archon stared at him with his divine anger. He was weak, but there was something in his voice that reverberated throughout the room, layered with thundering vibrations and something that made Childe feel so small. "You will pay your dues."

Summary
“Is, uh.” Childe’s mouth went dry. “Is that you, Zhongli xiansheng?”
“Indeed, it is,” Zhongli spoke, lifting a very small paw to rub at his snoot. The deep voice in contrast with such a cute appearance was very jarring, an unsettling wave of confusion short circuiting Childe’s brain. As the harbinger stood at his bedroom door without a sound, Zhongli shuffled forward to the edge of the bed, his face turned up to meet his eyes. “Thank you for coming. I was having trouble getting my daily tasks completed in this form,” he continued, settling his round body comfortably in his new sitting position. One could not even tell where his head stopped and when his body began.
Archons, Childe wanted to poke him.
