    Summary

    "Who?" Till's voice came out choked, barely audible. "Who is it, Ivan?"

    Shame burned in Ivan's cheeks in contrast to the cold dread coiling in his chest. Each ragged breath felt like sandpaper against his raw vocal cords. "It's..." he started, then trailed off, the confession caught in his throat like another blooming petal.

    Something flickered in Till's eyes. "Ivan, please," he pleaded, his voice cracking. "Just tell me. We can figure out something, they can love you back, you will be fine-" The desperation in Till's voice, raw and open, sent a fresh wave of pain through Ivan. He wanted nothing more than to confess but the words refused to leave his mouth.

    aka

    ivantill hanahaki au where they both know and still nothing changes because you can’t force anyone to fall in love and while till loves ivan, he isn’t IN love with him and the guilt kills him just the same as the flowers do for ivan. that I talked about on twitter yesterday (actually today at 12:46 am but close enough)

    Summary

    “When I get famous, I’ll steal you away from them. Then you can study something you actually like. Not this… Business shit.”

    “I’ll be the great Till’s little housewife?” Ivan teases, and that grabs Till’s attention away from his frustration. The frown on his face turns into fond annoyance.

    Despite his expression, Till’s response is genuine, “If that’s what you want,” he says, before smiling, small and soft, “or you could study the stars. Teach me what they mean the next time the sky’s clear enough to see all of them.”

    Ivan softens, looking at Till with the warmest look in his eyes, “You don’t want to just learn them yourself?”

    “Things are better when you say them.” Till says, earnestly. Ivan is gripped with affection, and the need to pepper kisses all over his face.

    (But he can’t. He hasn’t been able to for months. It’s starting to drive him insane.)

    or;

    Ivan tries to survive college with his only support system miles away from him. It goes as well as you think.

    Summary

    After a devastating accident claims the life of his boyfriend and ostracizes him from the family he’d come to call his own, Jimin is lured back home by a mysterious call from the caretaker of his childhood town. Drawn to the Island he once ran desperately from, Jimin finds new life amongst the eclectic group of people who slowly infiltrate his world and pull him out of the shell he'd erected to protect himself. While his past haunts him in ghostly oppressive ways, Jimin also finds himself overwhelmed by the resurfacing of old feelings for his first love, Taehyung, despite the tumultuous and strained relationship they have now.

    As Jimin slowly opens up more and more, and finds happiness in his childhood home surrounded by new friends and opportunity, so comes the long secrets of the past to ruin him once more.

    Worst of all is the singular truth constantly lurking in the back of his mind:

    He may have run far and wide from Kim Taehyung nearly eight years previous. But he never stopped loving him.

    Summary

    His junior comes right up behind him as he pauses, his tone suddenly softer. “You’re angry with me.”

    “Of course I’m angry!” Kaveh spins around on heel and forced himself to stare up at his roommate, barely able to keep the tremble out of his lip. “We had plans and you just…tossed them aside. Without so much as asking me!”

    Alhaitham’s brows pinch together as he stares Kaveh down, as if trying to decipher a puzzle. “You could have just come with us-”

    “That’s not the point!” He’s far too drunk for this. It’s getting harder and harder to fight back the sting in his eyes and the tight squeeze in his chest. “I just…I need to go to bed. We can talk about this later.”

    --

    Kaveh's carried a torch for Alhaitham pretty much since the first day they met. It's obvious to everyone but the Grand Sage himself, but Kaveh isn't ready to put himself out there and risk being shut down.

    Turns out keeping his feelings to himself ends up hurting a lot more than he expected.

    In which Kaveh gaslights himself (a lot), Alhaitham's bad at feelings, Cyno's jokes are terrible, and Tighnari's just trying his best.

    Summary

    “The Anemo Archon is in danger. He collapsed and has not woken for days. We have reason to suspect an elemental affliction, but we—”

    “What?” Zhongli does not raise his voice. But it feels as though the rest of the world goes silent instead, as though the earth itself shudders and echoes in his wake.

    “Is he hurting?” he asks, voice dipping sharply on the last syllable.

    Amber tries to read his expression: that stony, unshakeable surface, and the tremors that lurk underneath. “No,” she responds, as gently as possible.

    There’s a taut silence. Zhongli looks back at her, and as she meets that gaze, she thinks of her yeye’s stories, stories of his homeland and its god-protector: that exalted figure who stood like a pillar through the storm, who conquered fear at every battle, who time and time again stared down death unflinching. And as Amber remembers these stories, it terrifies her to think: what could make someone like that afraid?

    “Take me to him,” Morax says finally. “I must see him.”

    Summary

    Illuminated by the glow of gold-scorched parchment, the harsh lines of Xiao’s face smoothen into confusion, then resignation. He takes a steadying breath. “You aren’t leaving.”

    “I’m bound to you until I find you love,” Venti corrects.

    “Yeah, so you aren’t leaving.”

    “Wrong! I have a hot streak of success.” Venti claps his hands, the contract scrolling back up into non-existence. “Now that you understand, shall we start over? My name’s Venti, and I’m your assigned Cupid. Your wingman, if you will.”

    “... Xiao.”

    Or: Xiao is, maybe, a little in love with his Cupid. Venti does not catch on.

    Summary

    On the border between Mondstadt and Liyue, he meets Xiao for the first time.

     

    “When one is alone and lonely, the body gladly lingers in the wind or the rain, or splashes into the cold river, or pushes through the ice-crusted snow.
    Anything that touches.” –Mary Oliver, Leaves and blossoms along the way: A poem

    Summary

    "Acting Grand Master," Lawrence says, "we have another noise complaint."

    Kaeya leans against the doorway, watching as Lawrence places at report atop Jean's desk. Sighing, Jean tiredly rubs at her brow, before offering a curt nod.

    "Thank you," she says. "I will deal with the complaint shortly."

    Pushing off the doorway, Kaeya saunters past Lawrence, picking the report up, and casually flipping through it. Jean shoots him a stern look, but does not tell him to put it back down.

    "It's from one of the sisters," Kaeya observes, and reads aloud. "Perpetrator scaled statue outside church while drunk and sang loudly for three hours."

    Lawrence lets out a delicate cough.

     

    As Weinlesefest draws near, Kaeya notices a new mystery in the city of wind and wine — Jean and Diluc have been oddly permissive with Venti since the Stormterror Incident. Mischievously determined to get to the bottom of this, Kaeya soon makes a discovery that threatens to upend everything he knows. In the process, he must reconcile what it means to be Khaenri'ahn, and to love a city that belongs to a god.

    Summary

    “They’re bitter,” he offers. “Ganyu eats them.”

    Barbatos’s eyes go round. “Raw?” he says, astonished. “My word.” He pauses, studying the qingxin in deep contemplation. Then he pops a petal into his mouth and immediately gags.

    Xiao concludes then and there that the Anemo Archon is an idiot. “I warned you,” he says, utterly unsympathetic.

    “That’s true!” Barbatos laughs. He runs a thumb over the bloom, but (thankfully) doesn’t try to eat any more. “I think it’ll grow on me,” he muses, then smiles, as if he’s said something clever.

    A selection of memories. Venti and Xiao, from the beginning to the end—and after.

    Summary

    Dvalin is not poisoned. The Anemo Archon fells Durin, and with his blessing, Mondstadt alone emerges from the cataclysm unbroken by the Abyss. But how? No scholar knows.

    500 years later, Xiao travels to Mondstadt to warn Barbatos of an Abyss Order plot—but there are questions, too, twisting in his heart. Among them: Why did you save me, that night in Dihua Marsh? Why haven’t you visited since then?

    And, because he knows all too well that power comes at a price: what did you pay to protect Mondstadt?

    (The God of Freedom has so few choices.)
