s/o is struggling with body image issues–how does zhongli deal with this?
tw: body image issues, depression and anxiety mentioned
zhongli x fem! reader
a/n: this took a while huh lol hope this is to your liking!
i would like to clarify that if any of these scenarios/hc's of mine are similar to other writers' works, it is unintentional and i apologize
not proof read
zhongli is quite concerned to say the least
although he has taken many forms before, not once has he experienced the crushing feeling of disliking how his body came to be
he finds that you've been fairly dim and down lately
your eating habbits have also changed drastically, he notes
on top of that, he hears some very self-deteriorating comments from you and it gnaws at the back of his head all the time as he recalls it
finding out that you do–his soul aches with the longing to reassure you
and so he does!
"love?" he comes into your shared room and sees your figure staring into the mirror again
oh, dear love
"ah! oh, honey.. i-" you start to ramble and make excuses, you didn't want him to worry too much but all is in vain as he sees your eyes start to brim with tears
"darling, come here.." he hugs you from behind and kisses your temple
he faces you to the mirror and pulls you closer
"my love, had you not seen yourself the way i do? it truly pains me to see yourself failing to see how beautiful you are." he presses another kiss on your neck
not believing his words, you frown at the image of your reflection on the mirror
how you hated the way you are, you think
"zhongli, i really wish i could tear this horrid body of mine to shreds, how could you see me like that?" you begin to sob
at this, zhongli shakes his head and whispers sweet nothings into your ear
"shh.. darling, don't cry. you've always stuck me as the most beautiful woman i've ever had the pleasure of calling 'mine.' i love you so much, no amount of self-destructive thoughts will ever make my narrative of you and your exceptional beauty any different." he rocks you gently to stop your crying.
"thank you.. for loving me, zhongli." you say in tears, and you genuinely are
zhongli chuckes at this, confusing you a bit
"do not thank me for loving you, my dear, i cannot help myself from falling for you, neither can i stop now." he smiles tenderly at you
