RAHHHHHHH THAT'S GOOD... please.... disobedient dog childe.... making a show of acting out and being all defiant but he can't help the way he stutters and turns red when zhongli's hand gets near his throat and the tiniest little push gets him stumbling back against the wall
zhongli adores getting to see him crumple. loving the moment that childe instinctively bows his head as he is struggling to keep pretending he's not a little collared puppy .......
