    Summary

    Working remotely in a seaside cottage to the rolling ocean waves and the briny winds - a quiet life away from his closest friends and the bustle of Liyue - was not how Xiao envisioned his life going a year ago.

    Nor did he expect to be the sudden owner of a top-of-the-line android who may or may not have the advanced cognitive abilities of a human mind stuffed inside an inorganic body.

    Summary

    Tighnari works the graveyard shift at a 24/7 store and encounters a lot of different kinds of people. Sometimes it's an annoying busker who can't seem to take a hint, an overworked woman running on caffeine or teen girls up way past their bedtime.

    He doesn't get paid enough for this.

    Summary

    “Sorry, I just saw you walking and I— Can I borrow your shoes?”

    Xiao blinks slowly at the other, down at his Crocs, then back up. “You want… my shoes?”
    “...Yes.”
    The glasses come off and Xiao is pinching the bridge of his nose, trying to process just what the hell is happening.

    OR

    Frat boy Venti asks the studious Xiao for his shoes for a fraternity scavenger hunt. Everything escalates rapidly from there~

    Summary

    “I know it looks bad but I’m not—“

    ”A thief?”

    ”I’M NOT! They steal for bad reasons!”

    “And what’s yours?”

    Itto’s mouth opens, closes, opens, is bit down, and he screams behind it, visibly losing a battle against himself.

    Itto's mind doesn't work in the conventional ways like everyone elses. Always he's excessive, too much, running with the first idea he gets on the decision that it's the greatest ever. So, yeah, he borrows his roommate’s stuff; keeps them close because that way it’s like he always has a part of Gorou with him.

    (Or Gorou’s things keep being taken by Itto because that guy can’t be normal about his feelings).

    Summary

    "You got scammed."

    "He was a very convincing salesman!" Hu Tao's voice comes through the speaker sharp and a few touches too loud. Xiao holds his phone an inch further away from his head, hoping to salvage his eardrums.

    "You said he told you it was a magic music box," Xiao says flatly. He lets every ounce of judgement seep into his words.

    "Exactly! Very convincing, Xiao!"

    In which Venti sells magical music boxes, Xiao is his unwitting customer, and there is absolutely, definitely nothing more to it at all.

    Summary

    “Aiya, you’re thinking way too far ahead! You’ve already insisted on the fancy seats, and that’s enough for one day. We’ll figure the rest out later!” Venti wiggles the mouse from Zhongli’s hand and clicks to the next ticket booking site, this one for some stage play about Liyue’s archon and all his dead friends. “I can’t believe you went ahead and spent 5,000 mora for second-row seats. You are so lucky I love you.”

    Venti has been in love with Zhongli for 10 years. According to Venti, Zhongli doesn't feel the same way. This is all good and fine, and their upcoming vacation together is most definitely not going to change a single thing.

    (Oh yeah, according to Zhongli? They're dating. Obviously.)

    Summary

    Sophomore Childe meets a stranger at a bus stop and falls in love at first sight – at least that's how he describes it. If only photographing Kaeya meant he could fall out of love with him, and not more so, maybe he wouldn't be so terrified.

    Childe holds his face against the crook of Kaeya’s neck. It’s easy to pretend there are ideas such as ‘inspired art’, ‘eternity’, and ‘immortalized beauty’, when he is surrounded by the wood-scented fragrance of Kaeya’s perfume. If this isn’t art, Childe doesn’t think anything is. It’s art when Kaeya takes him a little tighter into his embrace and kisses his forehead and says again, “What am I supposed to do?”

    Summary

    First he observed them,meticulously scrutinized their words, actions and inactions and drew his conclusions. Those who didn’t make the cut were scared away, and those who did were subjected to yet another, harsher, investigation done by none other than Diluc himself. This is where most threw the towel; dating someone with such a scary and weirdly protective older brother was a nightmare most pubescent individuals wanted no part in. Few were the ones that survived to officially date Kaeya and not a single of them lasted.

    So how, just how, had Tartaglia managed to mislead Kaeya into dating him?

    Summary

    Kaeya offers Diluc a lazy smile. “I thought you wanted to know all the business of the Knights of Mondstadt.”

    “Not,” says Diluc slowly, through gritted teeth, “all of it. You don’t need to inform me that you intend to seduce the Snezhnayan diplomat.”

    Summary

    Venti pats the empty space between them. "C'mon I want to braid your hair," he says, deciding that a simple three-strand braid would be perfect, “you can still read your fancy-schmancy articles while I do ‘em.”

    “They are far from fancy-schmancy,” is Zhongli’s dry reply. He still moves from his position and sits in the space Venti made.

     

    Or: It begins with hair ties. Then it's little knick-knacks that Zhongli always, always says he bought because it reminded him of Venti.

    Summary

    It's been years. Four years, in fact, since they signed their first lease together. Lots of years before that, too, when they were in school. Venti may or may not have been holding a silly, brightly burning candle for Zhongli the entire time. What better day than Valentine's Day to confess to your long-time crush?

    No part of the plan included the possibility of Zhongli assuming they were already together.

    ~~

    “Do you think that maybe he likes you back?”

    “No, of course not. We’re way too different.” Venti raises a finger to his chin. “But I’ll just have to convince him otherwise, won’t I?” He spins on his heel, digging through the top drawer of his dresser.

    He knows there’s something perfect, he just has to—aha! He lifts a jumbled up ball of fabric that could maybe be considered underwear if you’re being generous, but is definitely black and lacy and skimpy enough to convince Zhongli of something.
    Lacy babydoll in hand, he turns to face Lumine, grin stretched from ear to ear.

    “Venti, no—”

    “Venti, yes.”

    Kravitz doesn't think his bizarre emotional connection to the sound of a radio DJ's voice should be a good enough reason for dating him.

    Summary

    Taako needed some extra cash, and tutoring was a pretty low stress job that fit his schedule. It wasn't even hard, he just met with a kid a couple times a week and helped with their homework and whatever. It was a pretty good job, and the kid he landed with wasn't half bad. Taako didn't like kids, but he guessed Agnes or Angus or whatever was alright.

    He didn't plan on getting attached to the job though. Or to Angus.

    Or to Angus's really hot single dad.

    Summary

    The last few weeks had been god awful for Kravitz, and now he just wanted to go home for the holidays and forget all about it. Except it seemed that instead of that, he was just going to be stuck in this damn airport for the rest of his natural life. If that wasn't bad enough, he really hadn't meant to offend the very pretty man who was also on his flight, especially not over something as ridiculous as Tinder.

    Kravitz didn't know how this could possibly get any worse, but he was sure the universe would find a way to provide.

    Summary

    Taako loved most things about his job, even if the coffee shop he worked at was a hot spot for every pretentious writer and artistic soul in a ten mile radius. One thing he couldn't stand however, was the radio station they were forced to play. It was the embodiment of every pseudo-intellectual snob that graced his presence each day. The host was just as bad, who puts on a fucking British accent for a radio gig? Shit was ridiculous.

    And well, if he was going to be forced to listen to it, the least Taako could do was try to have some fun with it all.
    ---
    Kravitz loved his job at the radio station, even if some aspects of it were a little ridiculous. Sure, it was long hours and he might've backed himself into a corner with the voice he needed to use on air, but he was surrounded by music. People couldn't bother him either, since he was locked up in the recording booth most hours of the day.

    Or at least, he thought people couldn't bother him. One particular caller seemed very intent on proving him wrong in that regard.

    Summary

    Kravitz hadn't intended on sort of informally adopting Angus, but that was what happened. He certainly wasn't complaining though, and he was glad to have him in his life now. When he started dating Taako it seemed to be only natural to want to introduce the two most important people in his life.

    Taako certainly hadn't meant to start watching after Angus at all. The kid just sort of wormed his way into his life, and it wasn't like Taako didn't know what it was like to be a kid on your own. So sure, he'd watch after the kid every so often, teach him magic and feed him and what not. And If Kravitz wanted to have their kids meet or whatever, he would bring Angus along.
