Summary
“Why don’t we go watch the fireworks in the city together?”
Venti’s ears, and consequently his whole posture, perk up at the Traveler’s invitation.
“Like I said before, I have no liking for crowds.”
And just like that, Venti felt himself falling from the sky—just like a lead balloon.
“I must remain vigilant of evil attacks, especially during the holidays. I will continue my patrol as usual.”
Venti already knows that is the case—that Xiao would go nowhere near the hustle and bustle of the Harbor, with or without the festivities.
Yet, hearing the Yaksha say his plans out loud… He couldn’t help sighing and becoming more deflated as he already is.OR, Venti realizes that a Lantern Rite Date with Xiao isn't as clear-cut as it seems; Xiao is in a state of perpetual confusion and discovery; and both are figuring out what to do with themselves and each other.
((Note: Events of this fic are set on Lantern Rite 2022 and can be read as is))

Summary
Xiao wants to confess - and while he gathers the courage to do so, he tries to remember the moments that led from Venti saving him, to him falling in love with Venti.
As for Venti? Maybe there was a moment he fell in love with Xiao, too. It's only a matter of time for the pair to realize the notes each plays, has been the same one of a shared duet.

Summary
Like Bosacius said, most of the tweets are full of praise for Barbatos; how kind he is, how sweet, how charming. Which, of course, makes sense. After all, if—and that’s a very large if—he had subconsciously been based on Venti, then it was inevitable that he would ensnare their hearts so easily. Of course, everyone would like Barbatos, adore him even—
Wait.
Abruptly, Xiao shoots into a sitting position. He snatches the phone into his hands, eyes narrowed. They scan the screen once. Twice. Three times. The offending tweet mocks him.
“Who the hell is ‘windbornebard’?”
In which Xiao unintentionally bases a dating sim love interest on his crush, makes a series of dubious decisions, and gets entangled in Twitter drama.

Summary
“Xiao? Your Postmates is here," Ganyu says, holding up a bag of takeout. Xiao has no idea what it could be. He glances back at his computer, only belatedly realizing that he should have taken a lunch three hours ago.
A name appears in his mind: Venti. It should be three in the morning for him right now. He hopes he’s asleep.
Ganyu hands him the bag. He unties the top, looking for any sort of message. He finds it scrawled on the inside of the container, written in a neat, quick hand.
Make sure to take a lunch break! You get half an hour. Love, Venti
