Summary
Perhaps this was why sitting in Zhongli’s apartment never ceased to feel so unreal.
Day after day, he woke up, the sun creeping in through the windows, and he would turn to face the love of his life.
And wonder when this would all inevitably come crashing down.
Because Zhongli was perfect. And the space Childe used to inhabit, where Guizhong once sat, was once filled with perfection, as well. And Childe knew there would come the day when Zhongli would realise that Childe wasn’t good enough for his perfection.
In which Childe learns that love is not conditional, and Zhongli learns grief can be shared and halved.
A companion piece to paper menagerie.
