note: i am going back to my roots: writing for genshin.
he prefers to be called your lover. it sounds more intimate to him than being called your boyfriend. zhongli would always introduce himself as your lover, regarding you as someone dear to him. call him old fashioned (because he is ancient) but that's the way he is.
zhongli is not really a fan of too much pda. at most, he would often interlock your hands with his, careful not to crush yours with his strength and would always caress your skin unknowingly. aside from that, zhongli would sometimes place his hand on your back or on your waist — it's just a subtle way of showing his possessiveness outside of your shared home.
he always takes you out on dates whenever it's your birthday or your anniversary or even his birthday! he just loves spending time with you on those special occasions (even without childe’s money btw). of course, those birthday celebrations can extend to both of your closest friends but he always does a separate celebration, just something between the two of you.
zhongli is the type of person to buy or bring home anything that reminded him of you. he's so thoughtful that you're running out of places to place those little trinkets he always gives you. you might as well make an altar of all the things he gave you so far, including the gifts he gives you on your birthday or other holidays.
your wellbeing is one of his top priorities in his life. you're his darling jewel, someone who treasures and would want to keep safe. whenever you go through something, he would always be patient with you, listening to whatever ails your heart. even when you're sick, he would be your personal nurse with how he takes care of you so much: helping you eat your meals, always making sure you take your medicine, at your beck and call whenever you need something; basically everything.
hear me out! he loves cuddles. he's touch starved, forgive him. zhongli loves to hold you, like i mentioned above when he shows subtle signs of intimacy outdoors. when indoors, he wants to wrap his hands around your waist and bury his face on your neck. even when the two of you are just lazing around on the bed, zhongli loves to hold you close to him. he would have you on his lap, your legs wrapped around his waist, your head resting on his chest while he's rubbing circles on your back. there's no need to fill in the silence, it is already comfortable for both of you. bonus if he shows you his dragon form and wraps his tail around your torso or your thighs.
zhongli can be really gentle when it comes to sex, especially if it's your first time. he’d be the type to establish safe words, always reassuring you that your wellbeing is important to him even in sexual activities. he would be whispering praises in your ear, trying to ease your pain when being penetrated for the first time. he’d try to make you feel relaxed for him by placing feathery kisses on your neck, cheek, forehead, and probably your eyelids. just anything to make you feel comfortable.
his movements are slow — he's not rushing, not when he tries to memorize this side of you. zhongli is looking at you with awe and full of love. he just adores it when he's learning how to pleasure you, asking what you want him to do with you or what you wanted to feel. he’d bask in the softness of your skin and will never pull away.
of course, there would always be a hint of possessiveness showing. dragons are possessive of their treasures and you're no exception. you are his darling jewel — he would make sure that you are marked as his in many ways: your neck, your thighs, even your insides when he paints it with ropes of his cum (with your consent, of course).
when he fucks you in his dragon form is a different story. he warns you that he might not be as gentle when he's in human form, mostly because he will give in to his animalistic traits when claiming you. zhongli is a whole lot more possessive when he goes through his ruts. he’d be rougher when claiming you, often leaving bruises on your hips or wrists from how tight he's pinning you beneath him.
zhongli sometimes fucks his tail into your mouth whenever he decides to fill your mouth just to establish control. even when he thrusts your mouth with the tip of his tail, the rest of it is somehow wrapped around your body still.
during his ruts, he can't help but mark you: his canine teeth sinking on the flesh of your neck, somewhere in the curve of where your throat is connected to your shoulder. that's zhongli’s way of properly claiming you as his mate.
since he's a dragon, he has a huge breeding kink. he would either stuff you full of his cum with his one dick or lay eggs using the other. when he feels like it, he’d fuck you with both cocks.
king of aftercare! zhongli always take good care of you and post-sex is no exception. when you're too fucked out to even clean yourself, he’d always be the one cleaning you up. after that, he would make you drink a glass of water or feed you with something light. zhongli will be the one dressing you up with clothes (bonus if it's his shirt that looks too big on you.
