Summary
First it was Osial… then Azhdaha… Two ancient gods who had been sealed away for centuries are now being awakened. Xiao knew that there is no such thing as a coincidence. He could only come up with one explanation: the seals Morax used were eroding over time… he doubt it is purely accidental that the traveller wound up in the centre of both events.
Of all the Gods Morax had put to rest, there was one that Xiao feared the most: his old master, the one who had enslaved him in his youth and the one Morax had freed him from. If his master were to awaken again… would Aether be able to stop him?

Lumine loved her brother.
Truly, she did. He was her opposite in the best ways. Aloof when she was indifferent. Bold when she was reserved. Careless when she was careful. Trusting when she was cautious. Aether was the summer to her winter. And she loved him with all her heart, knowing that his love for her was nothing less either.
But sometimes, just sometimes, she wondered how on earth was he so blind towards what was in front of him.

Summary
Blonde hair pooled around his head over his pillow, completely down and loose. He didn’t have the energy to braid it. He didn’t have the energy for anything today.
He had commissions to do, but he couldn’t make himself get up.
He had promises to fulfill.
He had to find his sister.
But he couldn’t.
All he could do was cry his heart out.But that wasn’t enough.
It didn’t fill the sense of loneliness, or the hole in his chest.
It made him feel worse, actually. -

Summary
Aether is so sick of moving in and moving out. Due to their parent's work, they've always traveled around, like a family of vagabonds. The memories he created with people he loved, all of them got buried as he starts packing his bags off to their next destination.
A year could feel like a day and he'll be gone by tomorrow.
This pushed him to be closed off, unable to form a genuine connection with the people he meets. Not after the devastation, he went through.
However, moving to Liyue will prove him wrong and will let him open up his heart once again when he meets a certain teal-blue haired boy.

Summary
"Xiao," Aether asks, holding on to Xiao's hand. As though one could grasp the wind. "Why did you appear before me the first time?"
The adeptus gives one of his small smiles. Verr Goldet had once said she'd never seen Xiao smile, something that Aether found strange. Perhaps no one else was looking hard enough, but Xiao always seemed to be smiling faintly whenever he spoke to him.
"I thought I recognised something in you. You have the eyes of a yaksha."
alternatively
Aether fumbles through the motions of being human. Xiao might be the only one who understands.

Summary
"And yet, for all Xiao resists the notion of himself as a freed spirit, he recognizes the ways in which his body yearns for liberation. There are periods of time where he cannot stop aching from the burden of being what he is, which contrasts so greatly with what he is coming to want. He wants to be known and he wants to let go; he wants to know what it’s like for his heart to beat in earnest and he wants the calluses on his hands to heal. ... He has always had tender inclinations, but was never allowed to make anything of them. He was beaten and ruined and convinced to be something he was not."
Xiao has spent far too long denying himself the chance to act on his feelings for Aether.

Summary
Half an hour of effort later, there were two lanterns on the ground next to them, one textbook perfect and another that looked like it had fought battles in the Archon War single handedly, entirely misshapen and barely resembling a lantern at all. Aether, who looked like he was trying very hard not to laugh, didn’t want to insult Xiao to his face and attempted to lie instead. “It’s pretty nice,” he offered, “Not bad for a first try.”
Paimon had no such hesitation. “This is the ugliest lantern Paimon has ever seen in Paimon’s entire life,” she cackled, floating around it to laugh from all angles, “and we helped an eight year old make one!”
Xiao felt strangely defensive over his lantern. He had made it with his own hands, after all, surely that was a natural feeling. “It does its job,” he snapped, reaching out to hold it protectively, “That’s enough.”or, How One Vigilant Yaksha Learns How To Accept His Freedom

Summary
Xiao didn’t make him angry… did he? Did he do something wrong? Snapped at the wrong time, brushed him off, something? Was all of this Xiao’s fault? Maybe—just maybe—if Xiao had been more accepting, more cordial, accepted the smiles more often, this wouldn’t have happened. If he had only given Aether a little more attention, if he’d accepted the Lanturn Right date outright like he wanted to… This was his fault, all his fault, and because of Xiao, Aether might be severely hurt. That was the only explanation. It was his fault it was his fault it was his fa—
“Xiao?”
He looked to Ganyu, who was carefully observing in the doorway. His breath was quick and heavy, his throat was dry, and his hands were shaking. Xiao was sure he looked like a caged animal with how he had snapped to attention. He needed to find them, and quick, but a self induced panic attack wasn’t going to get him anywhere.
“Where’s Paimon?” he snarled.
“With Lady Ningguang. I can take you to—”
In a burst of teal blue and black smoke, Xiao was gone from the middle of the room.

“Since you told me I couldn’t cut my hair, I think it’s only fair if you help me maintain it.” Apparently Xiao’s actions had emboldened Aether with ire, because he has no trouble demanding this of him. He turns, then peers meekly over his shoulder.
“Will you help me wash it?”
