Zhongli just constantly being made fun of for being an old man

• “How tempted are you, right now, to say ‘back in my day’?”
  Zhongli, glaring: Not at all
• [Childe bridal-carrying Zhongli]
  Zhongli, flustered: Oh, thank you.
  Childe: No problem, old people have trouble getting around themselves, right?
• Traveler, showing Zhongli a photo of Madame Ping: This is the kid that used to follow you around, feel old yet?
• Zhongli talks and it’s always a struggle for his friends because like. Do I make fun of the old man voice? Or do I simp because it’s deep
• Zhongli: [lying down]
  Xiangling, standing over him:
  Zhongli, sitting up: Don’t you DARE–
  Xiangling, at the top of her lungs: HELP HE’S FALLEN AND HE CAN’T GET UP
• Zhongli: Not too long ago–
  Ningguang, jotting down notes: How long ago exactly?
  Zhongli, getting flustered: NOT TOO LONG AGO–
  Ningguang:
  Zhongli: Fine it was four hundred years but the joke is still funny
• Every time Zhongli stretches, someone is obligated to go “is your back bothering you?” and Zhongli refuses to admit it but it is, in fact, bothering him
• Hu Tao: How’s retirement?
  Zhongli: I literally work for you–
  Zhongli: But retirement’s nice, thanks for asking
• A lot of “wow you look so young! What’s the secret to your youth?” jokes
• Venti: Sometimes I think I’m old, then I look at you–
  Zhongli: You’re literally the second oldest archon–
• Just. Zhongli being mercilessly teased for being the old man he is.
