Summary
The Yaksha was not built to be gentle. His hands were made to wield a weapon; he was raised and trained to fight and defeat, to not flinch at the sight of blood staining his clothes. He was a warrior, tainted by his kamic debt and cursed to always kill, to eventually go mad. His body was not accustomed to being gentle.
But Aether never saw him as any of this. The traveller saw him as he was, a warrior who went through hell and crawled his way out, an adeptus who battles his own demons every day, along with following his duty as Liyue’s last remaining yaksha. This is why Xiao finds it easy to try and be gentle, to try and use his hands for more than violence.
or:
The story of The Traveler and the Vigilant Yaksha, two beings who learn how to be merely Aether and Xiao alongside eachother.

Summary
Aether only wanted to buy a small, turquoise purse shaped like a bug-eyed fish. He didn't expect to spend the day navigating the crowded streets of Liyue Harbor with Adeptus Xiao at his shoulder. Between accidentally scamming a discount at Wanmin Restaurant and receiving relationship advice from a retired Archon, Aether realizes that while Xiao might be a terrifying weapon against demons, he's surprisingly vulnerable to the charms of a mundane afternoon.
or; Everyone in Liyue harbor thinks Aether and Xiao are dating, and honestly? Neither of them are doing a very good job of proving otherwise.

Summary
Aether takes a step towards him, and another. Heavy, tired, in everything but his eyes. Xiao uncrosses his arms, opens them, and Aether falls into him like a domino destined to fall.
Aether buries his face on Xiao’s shoulder. Inhaling. Exhaling. Deflates. His hold is tight around Xiao.
“I’m back,” Aether whispers.
Xiao closes his eyes, burying his face in Aether’s golden hair. Xiao holds on just as tight, one hand between Aether’s scapulae and the other a band around his waist. Xiao breathes in moonlight and sweat, the slight spiciness of Aether’s scent underneath everything.
“Welcome home, traveler,” he whispers.
