Summary
Xiao will always remember the day another archon saved him. It was burned into his memory against his will, always hovering in the back of his thoughts. And though he knew this wasn’t true, he felt as though it was almost a betrayal to his lord.
He’d let another save him, and he prays that the debt that had put him in would not interfere with his contract with Morax. And his only way to ensure that never happens?
Avoid Barbatos at all costs.
(This does not work out).

Summary
Recently Xiao has not been able to tell his dreams from reality.
With every day that passes he slips farther away, his grasp on the world weakening. He knows he should be worried, that he should tell someone- but Xiao just can’t bring himself to care.

Xiao forgets, sometimes, the affliction that comes with being immortal.

Summary
Dragonspine is dangerous for a large variety of reasons: the supernatural killer cold, the everpresent invasion of Fatui agents, and of course the corruption that dwells at its heart. Albedo takes care to protect his campsite from all of these threats when he travels up the mountain to study in solitude.
Somehow, his preparations never considered the very natural phenomenon of avalanches.

Summary
It’s been two months since the storm, and Childe hasn’t seen Zhongli not even once, not since that fateful meeting with the Signora where the truth is finally unveiled.
And what a fun little kick to the gut that is, the realization that not only had he been played by all sides, but he's also being tossed aside like trash now that his use had run its course.
It’s not that Childe doesn’t get it. He’s a Harbinger. He knows first-hand what it means to do his duty, to put the mission first and his personal feelings far, far away, preferably locked up in a box, where it wouldn’t interfere with his job. He knows what it’s like working with vipers, to scheme and plot and lie in wait for the opportune moment to stab his opponent in the back.
But this time, this time Childe can’t help but feel a little (a lot) gutted.
Stupid. He’s gotten himself stupidly attached.

A story about Childe trying to move on after the events of 1.1 Update, but some of his actions have consequences, and those consequences have followed him back to Snezhnaya.NOTE: THIS FIC WAS DRAFTED BEFORE 1.1 UPDATE CAME OUT. MIND THE CANON-DIVERGENT TAG FOR THIS REASON.
