    Summary

    Venti wakes up in Liyue with no shoes, no memory of how he got there, and a grumpy veterinarian accusing him of trespassing. Naturally, he sticks around. Xiao doesn’t know what’s worse: the strange, overly polite man who seems clueless about the modern world, or the fact that he can’t bring himself to kick him out. It’s just another day of misunderstandings, unexpected feelings, and perhaps a bit of divine intervention.

    Summary

    Where the flower blooms, it wilts when not watered.

    And where love blooms, it takes you with it when not reciprocated.

    .
    .
    .

    It all started when Xiao received a call from an unknown number in the middle of the night, surrounded by the bloody petals that came from his very own heart.

    “You’re dead, you’re dead, but why can I hear you?”

    Summary

    For the longest time, Xiao is alright. Everything is alright.
    Except when it’s not, most of the time. But that’s the norm, the usual. The price the Vigilant Yaksha accepted and that comes with his duties.
    Xiao became used to listening to Barbato's music from afar, rarely allowing anything further throughout the millennia. He tries not to overthink why the divine tunes saved him, or if he was even worthy of it. It’s alright too, he doesn’t have to know, it’s for the best to limit such unattainable desires.
    Until it all changes when Venti decides to weave his presence into Xiao’s life, not as a god, but as a dear company, a contrast to the shadows. For once, Xiao allows something good to bloom inside of him.

    Summary

    “wouldn’t it be amazing,” venti whispers, “to be immortalized among the stars?”

    xiao doesn’t reply, only listening to the sound of the gentle waves and the passing breeze. venti continues to say, “maybe if i was a star, you wouldn’t have to ever worry about me leaving you behind.” that takes xiao by surprise, and the siren peers up at venti, eyes wide.

    how does he know? but xiao stops himself and it dawns upon him that that despite how aloof venti shows himself to be, the mermaid has a habit of picking up on small things, notices things about xiao that even he, himself doesn’t realise. of course venti knows, he’s always been able to read xiao like an open book.

    “how would i find you then?” xiao asks instead, quiet.

    “easy,” comes venti’s voice, airy and light. “all you have to do is look up at spot the brightest star you see. and there i’ll be, watching over you from all those millions of lightyears away.”

    the two of them met a long time ago.

    Summary

    When one of Xiao’s endless battles against the remnants of old gods leads to the slaughter of an innocent child, the guilty adeptus knows he must pay penance for his crimes. However, upon meeting with his Lord, ready and willing to be executed, Rex Lapis refuses to terminate their contract before its due time. Instead, he sends the yaksha to the Land of Dreams, where he is to spend a human lifetime hunting nightmares to atone.

    Xiao expects it to be lonesome work, but then: enter Venti, a bard from Mondstadt whose dreams of a castle with a lighthouse by the sea somehow draw Xiao back to him time and time again. And while Xiao means only to spend the century executing his duty, Venti somehow manages to make their time spent together into something almost like a sweet dream.

    Now if only Xiao would let him.
