Summary
She had to do something, since showing up in her own skin and throwing herself at Arlecchino did not seem like a good option, or at the very least, dignified. The woman was so young, and already so self-possessed, and here Nicole was with her thousands of years and her magics, giggling and kicking her feet like a schoolgirl. Silly of her, she supposed.

Summary
“Now,” she says, after returning with the teapot. “Cards on the table.”
Arlecchino raises an eyebrow, and Nicole flushes.
“We are both—ah, how do you put this—women of the world.” She takes a deep breath and looks Arlecchino in the eye. “Are you here for the reasons I think you are?”
“I would prefer you speak plainly, Ms. Nicole.”
“Very well! Would you like to sleep with me?”

Summary
Their campsite is underneath a tree, the grass soft and plush beneath their feet, and dotted with wildflowers. Xiao lets out a stifled, happy noise when he sees it, and looks to Venti for permission before flopping down on the grass, basking—sunning himself.

Summary
“Release me—” Xiao says, but something chokes the words in his throat, right at the source, and the only sound his own frantic breathing as the shadows above his head shift, blocking out the light of the sun. The chill hits his skin immediately.
“Little bird, little bird,” says a voice, high and strange and echoing. “Why do you trespass in my garden?”

Summary
The ancient wind that sweeps past him carries the scent of grass and snow, and Xiao knows something has changed.

Summary
But it is spring, all of a sudden, the breeze carrying with it warmth and rain, and the cold blanket of the world melted away a little more each day. And this time, Xiao is returned to himself, restless and wild and panting.

Summary
Xiao’s hand has stolen between his legs now, the heel of his palm against the soreness there. A gasp, a choked moan. Oh, he can’t, not with Venti there, but he can’t stop thinking about it—Venti’s hands on his thighs, coaxing them apart gently, firmly, and then—

"I heard he sings outside the general's tent," Hu Tao whispers.

"Venti," he manages, that single word somehow needier than anything that had come before.
Venti grins at him. "Yes, little bird?"

Summary
The first taste of autumn is in the air when Xiao first receives the order.
Retirement, it says, written in the inexorable and utterly recognizable script of Rex Lapis, the rest of the contract written formally and his seal stamped over the dried ink. He had done enough, Xiao had done enough—it had said—and his duties were discharged now, to let him have a little of the hard-won peace, and some enjoyment of it. And maybe—the contract stated in the kindest possible terms—maybe Xiao could have a new life of his own, just like Rex Lapis, as though he was hatched anew.

Xiao hates group projects.
Until Venti comes along.

Summary
A month passes before the invitation arrives by way of wisp.
It is Venti’s, unquestionably, his looping handwriting, his seal. “To my favorite yaksha,” the opening reads, and Xiao finds his face heating furiously. Venti always manages to find a way to fluster him, even from miles away.
It is an invitation to another festival, a “small, intimate gathering” that Xiao is certain will involve the entirety of Mondstadt, if not more visitors from other nations. Still, Venti promises him a good time, and he has not yet lied to Xiao.

Summary
It was new, this thing with Venti—fragile and small in Xiao’s outstretched hands—and he didn’t want to ruin it. He’d left that evening with desire burning through him, and had gone to sleep with the rosy flush of it chasing away his nightmares.
Venti wouldn’t reject him. He knows that, deep down—some part of him loving the attention, trilling sweet and rubbing up against Venti—but he still can’t come out and ask. It would be so shameful to ask, so embarrassing, yet another baring of Xiao’s soul—the aching, agonizing need bleeding out just underneath the thinness of his skin.

Summary
It had been Xiao’s idea. A sort of pilgrimage to celebrate the marriage, to Mondstadt’s places of worship. To learn the ways they adored the Anemo Archon, he had said, and Venti’s eyes glimmered—the green of his eyes swallowed up by his pupils blown wide—and he had kissed Xiao frenziedly, lips and tongue and not a little teeth.
He’s doing that still, each breath shuddering through both of them as one. Venti’s nails raking against Xiao’s scalp, his fingers buried in Xiao’s hair. He’s a little careless with it now, a little more rough, nipping at the sensitive skin of Xiao’s throat, the jut of his collarbones. Xiao will have bruises there tomorrow, scattered like stars below his collar.

Summary
“Hey,” Venti says, and then Xiao is stepping through the door, arms wrapped around Venti the second he’s through. “Oh. Xiao. Hi.”
“Missed you,” Xiao mumbles into the crook of Venti’s neck.

Summary
And then Xiao is in his arms, burning and trembling and bristling with feathers, and Venti catches his scent and knows it is no injury that led him here.
“Xiao,” he says, an attempt to be delicate. Xiao sighs happily, chirruping and nuzzling into Venti’s exposed neck, the little triangle of skin at his collar.
Venti has watched him before, on his visits to Liyue. He knows Xiao as a distant, shy thing, duty-bound and duty weighed, not as this wanton figure winding his arms around Venti, panting with a red mouth and tasting the sweat off Venti’s skin. “Why are you here?”
"Warm,” Xiao says, simply.

Summary
Pretty thing.
The pounding, strobing lights overhead make it hard to see, but Venti knows a one-night stand when he spots one—dark hair, tight pants, boots laced up to the knees, and a peaked lovely face that looks out of place among the sweaty, drunken mass of bodies. An innocent among the revelry.
Venti grabs a drink, then approaches.

Tags
Summary
Venti does not make a habit of spying on people through their Visions. He values freedom, values the ability of each person to keep their own secrets and their own counsel. Non-interference, that was the principle he believed in.
It doesn't stop him from casting a glance over at Xiao once in a while.

Summary
Xiao cannot stop thinking about it.
For the third time that morning, he brushes his fingers against his lips, still kiss-bruised, the bite already healing. He doesn’t even taste the blood anymore. A flash of heat stirs somewhere in his chest, then subsides. An echo.

Summary
There is something compelling about it, the god and the dragon flying together, the ease with which Lord Barbatos beckons to it, the same ease with which it follows.
A taming, of sorts.
Xiao finds himself unconsciously tugging at his collar. A rustle of movement, a preening of feathers. He has stopped wearing his mask.
