[IAU: A Collaboration]

'No... Please don't die on me now...' Tartaglia cried,

'I-I'm sorry, you have to live on..'

Tartaglia pulled out his gun and left the scene, crying, he had to keep going on, for her.

'Aaaand, cut! Good job everyone! Now is the time for a 10 minute break.' the director, Aether smiled,

The actor, Tartaglia walks over to the break area and takes a seat on a chair, tired.

'Hey, Tartaglia, may I speak to you for a second?' Aether said, patting the ginger on the shoulder,

Tartaglia gets up, and follows the director to the corner of the room.

'What is it?' Tartaglia asked,

'Well... We have some good news! We are having a collaboration with a modelling agency from Liyue!' Aether said,

'Huh?'

'Well... The Wangsheng agency from Liyue have heard about your action movies. And they would like to be apart of one.'

'They have laid out everything, the story line, the characters, literally everything.'

'So? What does it have to do with me?'

'Because.. You, are the main character, along with Wangsheng's most popular model, Zhongli!'

'Huh... Is that so..'

'I'll be emailing you the storyline and your script they provided us with tonight.'

'Alright then..'

'Alright, everyone, back to work!....'

That night, Tartaglia sits on his bed with his laptop. Then remembers about the email. He goes and checks it, as expected, there was an email about the collaboration.

'Maybe I should check out this so called "Zhongli", he can't be THAT handsome right? There is no one as handsome as me...' Tartaglia thought,

He goes to the website of the Wangsheng Agency.... And was shocked to see the model. 

'Holy shit...' he muttered to himself,

Tartaglia took back what he said, Zhongli wasn't even handsome, he was hot, more on the pretty side, as in more of the hot girl side... Tartaglia finds his face heating up a little,

'I guess his designer knows what they're doing...' Tartaglia said, blushing,

After contemplating for a while, Tartaglia opens his instagram and searches up the brunette's account and follows him. 

'Don't worry Ajax, it's just for the collaboration..You can unfollow him right after.' he told himself, 

He puts down his phone. 

'Ding ding'

His phone vibrates, Tartaglia picks up his phone, it was a message from unknown. 

'Huh?' Out of curiosity, he opens his messenger and read the message,

[Hello, may I ask if you are Tartaglia from The Fatui?] 

At first, he suspected that the message was from a fan.. But realised that there was no way a fan could get a hold of his phone number... So he texted back..

[Yes, how may I help you?]

[This is the right number, ok. I'm Zhongli, from the Wangsheng Modelling agency, And I'm sure you know about the movie collaboration?]
