Written in Stone

Rex Lapis has an excellent memory. Of course, he has to in order to remember all the contracts he made. But one has slipped his mind; or rather, he purposely tried to forget about it. One drunken night he and Barbatos had made a contract that if by their decided date they weren't in a relationship, they'd just marry each other. If Rex Lapis had been sober, he would've never had made such a foolish contract, but as the God of Contracts, he can't very well break his own contract. He ultimately pushed it to the back of his mind, hoping it would work itself out. But now, the agreed upon date is quickly approaching and though he tries to get out of it, a certain funeral parlor consultant realizes he has feelings for a certain bard. But nothing's ever easy when it comes to love; as Zhongli reckons with his feelings, he must also face forces that threaten to tear him and Venti apart along with all of Teyvat.
