Okay so, I personally do not really see Zhongli as just a little, but as a flip with a caregiver lean! He does regress when he feels like he can be around the rest of the adepti, like Xianyun and Xiao, and also the traveler for example. And when he does regress, he regresses to around 4-6 years old, a little bit of an older kiddo but still a kiddo!
🪽 - Zhongli is quite clingy as a little, loving to hold onto his caregiver or sibling's hands, holding into their arms, etc.
He loves to cuddle his caregivers and siblings!! Zhongli will always tug on their arm sleeve to ask for cuddles. He gets especially clingy when it's around naptime/bedtime. He wants cuddles and a story for bed :3
🍼 - Xianyun and the traveler are Zhongli’s caregivers, while Xiao, Ganyu, and Yanfei are his siblings!
I think having Xianyun as his caregiver is pretty reasonable since she has taken care of both Shenhe and Ganyu, she just gives off the mom vibe you know? And the traveler, since Zhongli seemed to get rather attached real fast to the traveler, they are happy to be his caregiver when they are in Liyue.
For his siblings, Xiao is the big brother of the adepti, even though he was one of the youngest by the yakshas, he is much older and wiser than Zhongli when he is regressed. Ganyu is the older sister who is always there if he gets hurt, she helps him out with tasks that seem difficult (even though she has a lot of work herself) and just loves her little brother. Yanfei is the storyteller of the three siblings, she loves telling Zhongli about stories of Liyue.
🪽 - Zhongli is rather polite, even as a kiddo! He is rather quiet and rarely is up to mischief.
He is very polite when he speaks to his caregivers and siblings, he refers to his caregivers by mother or father depending on who is taking care of him. For his siblings, he just refers to them as brother or sister.
Zhongli asks always before he can do a specific plaything like going out, playing with plushies, etc. He just wants to check if it is alright first, and sometimes, if he can't do a specific activity he may have a tantrum.
🍼 - His favorite game to play is either hide and seek or chess!
The little guy loves to go around and hide from his caregivers when he is feeling mischievous! So he always wants to play a game of hide and seek, to Xianyuns dismay...
🪽 - His comfort item is a stuffed animal that looks like Morax (His dragon form!)
He can't fall asleep without it when he is regressed. Once he lost it when he and the traveler had a picnic just outside Liyue harbor and the poor guy cried so hard when it was nap time and they couldn't find it (they found it later around the docks)
I hope you enjoyed my take on Little!Zhongli !! It was really fun writing this for you Zak!!
