The Stars, They Shine in Your Eyes by Mikazukini

Summary
“It’s the first time I can see them,” Kaeya says in a quiet, almost sheepish voice.
“See what?” Venti answers. “There’s not much to see in this darkness.”
The boy shakes his head. “That’s the point.” He raises his gaze up to the sky and tension drains from his shoulders. “The stars, they’re so beautiful.”
An Archon meets a spy.
Or: Kaeya and Venti over the years and how two rightful enemies kindle a friendship over shared secrets.

Summary
Venti lies across his chest. He thinks, as he traces one of Xiao’s eyebrows with a finger, of how hard it was to be this close at the beginning. A smile pulls at his lips, bittersweet with the pieces of Xiao’s past his mind puts together. He still doesn’t know all of it.
"Do you dream, Xiao?"
Xiao tries to reclaim some parts of himself. Venti walks through the process with him.

Xiao doesn’t think he kissed anyone before, let alone harbor feelings like he did for this annoyingly pretty college student.

Summary
“Freedom, huh?” Cecili murmurs. “Is this what this is? Not having my memories—is that freedom?” He’s worrying the grass between his fingers, tearing out some of it in absentmindedness.
“For some, it might be,” Xiao says, echoing his earlier thoughts. “Do you think that’s what freedom means for you, Cecili?”The bard lets out a small, wry laugh. “What do I know of freedom,” he says, and watches as the grass blades drift away in the wind.
A stray amnesiac bard makes a home for himself in Qingce Village. Despite himself, Xiao visits, again and again.

Summary
“Alright. I won’t push it,” Beidou says at last, folding her arms over her chest. “Archons know you’re stubborn. And you’ve got every right to be--you’ve been on your own for a long time, I can tell. All I’m saying is...the crew’s here for you, you know.”
Kazuha closes his eyes, unsure of what to make of the fragile sensation that flutters in his chest, the faintest part of him that likes the sound of what she’s saying, that keeps reaching out when there’s nothing to find.
“I know.”
-
Or, Kazuha learns to grieve.

Summary
Chat Noir, notorious supervillain of Paris, experiences a wardrobe malfunction in the best and worst possible place: Marinette Dupain-Cheng’s balcony.
Heart pounding, Chat pins Marinette’s wrists to the balcony. She stares up at him, her blue eyes kaleidoscopic from the lights hanging overhead, her features twisted into a scowl.
“Why are you trying to take my Miraculous?” Chat hisses.
“Because—you—I—” Marinette splutters, her eyes dipping down below Chat’s face. “Why is your suit unzipped?”
“I—well…” Chat sighs. “My zipper got stuck.”

Summary
Even so, Xiao smiles to himself as he plays with Venti’s mussed hair. It’s been like this for years now; the pining, the yearning, the ache to hold a star that burns to the touch. From their childhood, what with escaping loud homes and louder parents, Xiao’s always wanted to keep him close. Close enough that the warmth from his friend illuminates his world. It’s always Venti, every time.
Xiao loves like it's breathing, and it's time he does something about it.

“And so,” Venti laments, shrugging, “My story comes to a close. Thank you for listening, Xiao, during your repose.”
All he can do is blink at the god. Venti stares back, face puffed up in mock ignorance.
“Venti—I—What?”

Summary
To Xiao, Barbatos was the embodiment of everything he was not: happy, free, fully confident in who he was. His music made the shadows in Xiao’s head retreat. They were all about living life to the fullest, having hope when the world was turned against you, and having fun (something that was almost entirely foreign to Xiao).
And now he was going to have to give away all his albums, delete Barbatos’ songs off his phone, and never listen to his music again. Just looking at the albums lined up on the shelf made Xiao cringe. He’d thought that if he ever did get a chance to meet his idol, it would be in a controlled space. He would have said something normal, like, Your music means a lot to me. Then he would’ve shaken Barbatos’ hand, gotten an autograph, and lived out the rest of his life in peace.
Xiao’s idol had watched him punch a guy in the stomach.
Since Zhongli's early retirement, Xiao's life has been aimless. But a chance encounter sets him on a new and uncharted path.
