Summary
On some nights, the particularly lonely ones, Rumi places the letter in the tiger’s mouth and sets out to meet him — the boy, the demon.
They bicker, and they argue, and they spar, and they show each other the subtle markings of their patterns that no one else gets to see.
//
Every meeting between Jinu and Rumi that didn’t happen on screen, because someone has to write them.

In the wind I'd taste the dreams of distant lives by AkumaNek0

Summary
Xiao and Barbatos love each other, that is a fact. It's been that way for thousands of years, and if all goes well, it'll be that way for thousands to come. But how did it start? Well, with a meeting of course.
Accompanying Lord Morax to meet the other Archons was an honor given to the best of Rex Lapis's Adepti, so of course Xiao accepts when he's chosen. He might regret it once there, just slightly, but he just needs to keep it together until the meeting ends, then he can go home and forget everything about the event. That is what he would have done, had he not been followed by a god with big white wings and a bigger heart.
A warrior with the duty to slaughter and a gentle bard-god don't seem to have a lot in common, but somehow, they both end up being just what the other needs.
Or, how Xiao and Venti found each other, starting from the very beginning.

Summary
Xiao preferred solitude. It was as simple as that—no friends, no connections, no vulnerability. But here he was, fulfilling his adoptive father's wish to learn the piano for his grand day. As if playing in front of hundreds wasn't nerve-wracking enough, his tutor certainly was.
A musical genius, described as a 'drunkard,' how could Xiao ever get along with someone like that? But when simple lessons turn into late-night talks and hesitant affection grows into a fragile bond, Xiao begins to question everything he thought he wanted—and what he truly feels. After all, he doesn't want Venti... does he?
Note 1: I've grown as a writer... a lot. Sooo~ my writing style will change as the chapters go on—thank you for joining me on this journey! I know it’s a bit rough. ehe~
Note 2 (Chapter 14+): There's a lot of denial/pining going on... like, a ton. It's enough to seriously consider opening a bottle of dandelion wine during editing... because, seriously, they're driving me nuts.

Summary
Sat on a tree's bend, hands on his seat and, in the air dangled his feet, a certain bard from Mond watched as the deep blues and purples of midnight gave way to the oranges and yellows of daybreakOr was it the 'ceruleans of daybreak'?
He definitely wasn't waiting for someone who may not even come to see him.Laughing at his circumstances, Venti lost his balance.
"Be more careful next time." It was a reminder—a light scolding.
Now that Xiao was there, he wasn't letting go, even if he was met with resistance.
Birthday celebrations are part of human traditions. He liked celebrating them as life is meant to be celebrated, despite not being a human himself. Venti may not have a cake or have candle lights to blow out, but he sure is glad that the wish-granting deities aren't so strict or picky about who they grant wishes to!
----------
OR
It's Venti's birthday, and he hasn't seen his favorite person since the events of the Chasm. A reunion, a talk, and emotions running high. Is Venti's wish too much to ask?Series

Summary
["Yes, actually. Most of the bodies were found in motels or in the bedrooms of the houses owned by the victims, sometimes in the alleyway, which can only mean-"
The conclusion clicked in Xiao's head, and while Xiao tried to look undisturbed, he can't help but feel his cheeks flame up at the realisation. "He killed them while they did the do." Xiao whispered, completing Zhongli's sentence.
What a way to go.]
~Chapter 1, "speeding across the country".***
Who says that love can't happen in a flurry of violence and splatters of blood?
(no one actually, but we are going to ignore that)When Agent Alatus, namely Xiao, goes undercover to catch the notorious serial killer V.D, as in Venti Dei, exactly what secrets lies below the act of two people dancing around each other with a gun and dagger ready in hand?
And what secrets of the heart do they uncover?
A Xiaoven fanfic.
One of my more mature fics, so watch out :D
