if these wings could fly by MaximillianDelirium

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.

Summary
"Work is work, and it’s better to keep it separate from personal stuff."
"I agree," Albedo said, pausing to take a drag on his straw. "Merging the two would be a mistake."
Aether scratched at a cut in the plastic tabletop. Of course. That was a reasonable, mature opinion—one that Aether technically shared. No need to blur the lines between the private and the professional.
As tensions run high on Venti's Inazuma concert tour, Aether crushes hopelessly (and obliviously) on Albedo. Midquel for "if these wings could fly"

Summary
Albedo has no clue how many hours pass by as he sketches. His imagination runs wild, making the pose he's drawing differ significantly from the hastily chosen reference material, but it's close enough - it's still bright, it's still loud, still laughing. An image of the golden flower tilting his head up to the sun, a sweet beam on his face as his braid of woven sunlight swishes in the air behind his back.
Albedo pauses, before sketching a golden sunflower behind his ear. It spirals, until lithe buttercups thread themselves through the long plait, and the boy's expression turns into one of surprised delight as a golden butterfly perches on his nose...
Oh gods.
Albedo has literally just drawn this very real and existing man into some sort of Disney prince.
This might be the most inanely embarrassing thing he has ever done.
in which PhD student Albedo is a closet famous Instagram artist, and he falls head over heels for a golden flower who shines brighter than the sun.

Summary
Astarion is near the docks when he feels Cazador's compulsion on him snap. He doesn't think twice. He just takes the next available ship out of Baldur's Gate. Its destination: The City of Splendors. Waterdeep.

Gale takes back the glass, now empty, and then seems to fidget a little. “There is something I wanted to get your opinion on- but it can wait until you’ve recovered. You don’t look well at all- no offense meant, of course.”
“None taken,” Astarion says sweetly. “Please go on. Tell me exactly what it is about my appearance that you find lacking.”

Summary
More than ten years after their debut, SEVENTEEN is (unofficially) inactive. Members cycle through military service, Jihoon continues making music, Soonyoung embarks on a solo world tour, Mingyu does something or another related to film and fashion.
And Wonwoo? Wonwoo drifts, unmoored, through completing post-secondary education. At least until a newspaper, a chat in a cafe, and a chance bathroom encounter set him up for long-awaited closure.
