Summary
Xiao’s journey toward the hill on Windrise is the only solid thing between them.
Xiao, whose lips Venti has only ever kissed through poems and breeze – Xiao, whose face Venti sees perhaps once every century – Xiao is making pilgrimage to him,
one step at a time, for the very sake of loving him.Bookmarked by Soushegg

Summary
In 2003, Xiao didn’t want to go home for New Year’s. In 2005, there was no home left to go back to. In 2008, he had more pressing issues to worry about. In 2010, home is…harder to define. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing, is it?
(Or: Xiao’s life, as told in snapshots of four Lantern Rites.)

Summary
Venti offers Xiao a drink, just as he always does. Sometimes, good drinks (that he hardly touches) and good company (that he mostly listens to) are all he needs to unwind.
Sometimes, he refuses Venti’s offer in favor of rest. They both know he’ll get none if Venti follows him back to his room. Venti used to protest, insisting that just one drink or just one song would help him sleep.
He’s grown since those days, and when Xiao refuses this time, Venti lets Xiao pass with little more than a softly spoken well wish.

In the days leading up to the Lantern Rite, Venti and Xiao spend some time together.

Summary
It was supposed to be simple: sneak into Mondstadt and kill the king. Yet fate had other plans. Now Xiao and Venti are back behind palace walls playing pretend as they formulate a new plan. But the deeper they go the more secrets they uncover, secrets that neither wants to come to light. Will they succeed or has their failure already been predestined?
