    Summary

    Thousands of years ago, Al-Ahmar felled a shooting star as it streaked across his sky. He captures Aether on his first visit through Teyvat, and makes the golden angel bear him forbidden fruit.

    Thousands of years later, Aether is reminded of his history with the king when he meets his reincarnation, Alhaitham.

    ---

    That neither the angel nor the King spoke a word of each other’s language was a matter ruthlessly ignored. In fact, Al-Ahmar’s genius had reached such heights to solve unsolvable questions and to think unthinkable answers that he no longer had the means to impart the most rudimentary of knowledge.

    Of much more importance was the deciphering of the biology of the angel’s fecund, hermaphrodite body - and this, the King took personally in his own two hands.

    Summary

    “When you said you had another surprise for me,” Aether starts, finally turning his impossibly golden irises to Zhongli.  “I assumed you meant another teapot.  I didn’t expect another mountain to arise.”

    Zhongli smiles, pleased with Aether’s pleasure of the gift.

    “I would have carved you space amongst the stars and lined the sky with your constellation,” he says, meaning every word.  Aether is moving into his arms, which only serves to quicken Zhongli’s heartbeat even more so.  He is small, and petite, but lined with muscles that Zhongli has traced and memorised the shape of every night he is able.  “As it were, my place is here, on the ground, amongst the stone.  A mountain is all I can offer.”

    “‘All I can offer’, he says.  Like it’s not the most extravagant gift any one has ever been given.”

    Summary

    The eight year old Xiao is not happy with his parents’ plans to haul him off to the faraway, rural Mondstadter town of Starfell every summer until he’s dead. There’s nothing to do, and their summer cottage is too far from anything even remotely interesting enough to make it worth the trip! He’s already preparing himself for the worst summer he has ever had—and many more to come.

    But then, he meets Aether, the boy next door. “Next door”, of course, entailing that he lives about a kilometer away. They quickly become best friends, inseparable if it weren’t for the force of a thousand more kilometers between them every other season.

    When their lives are turned upside down within the treacherous waters of growing up, they come to find they will need each other more than ever, fearing the worst with every wave. Amidst the tumult of navigating confusion, emotions, stress, and changes that neither of them were ready for, something else is born—something that could either drive a wedge between them forever, or bring them closer together than ever before.

    Summary

    Kaveh makes some slight modifications to a purchase he'd made, and AlHaitham was certainly pleased to see it in action. They did also always say it was best to grab the bull by its horns.
